EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Torquay, Hesketh Crescent and Meadfoot, 1870s" takes us back to the picturesque coastal town of Torquay in Devon, England. The creator of this stunning piece is none other than Francis Bedford, a renowned photographer from the 19th century. The image showcases the beautiful bay and beach of Torquay with its charming Victorian buildings lining the seafront. Hesketh Crescent stands proudly on top of the cliff, overlooking the panoramic scenery that stretches as far as the eye can see. The architectural details of each house are captured flawlessly by Bedford's lens. As we delve into this historical photograph, we are transported to a time when Torquay was at its peak as a popular tourist destination for British holidaymakers seeking respite by the sea. The serene atmosphere and natural beauty depicted in this print remind us why Torbay continues to be cherished today. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their heritage art collection, this image serves as a testament to Bedford's skillful craftsmanship and his ability to capture not only physical landscapes but also an essence - an intangible concept that connects viewers across centuries. Let this remarkable print transport you back in time and immerse yourself in the Victorian charm that still lingers along Torquay's seashore.
