EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1959 transports us to the serene and mystical setting of St Clether Chapel and Holy Well in Cornwall. The photographer, Charles Woolf, skillfully captures the essence of this sacred place, offering a general view that exudes both tranquility and spirituality. Nestled amidst verdant surroundings, St Clether Chapel stands as a testament to centuries-old Cornish history and religious devotion. Its weathered stone walls tell tales of countless prayers whispered within its hallowed halls. The chapel's humble yet elegant architecture is beautifully complemented by the natural beauty that envelops it. In the foreground lies the Holy Well, an ancient source believed to possess healing properties. This sacred water source has long been revered by locals and pilgrims alike who seek solace or physical rejuvenation through its waters. Surrounded by lush greenery and delicate wildflowers, the well emanates an aura of enchantment. The photograph evokes a sense of reverence for both nature and faith as they intertwine harmoniously at this cherished site. It invites viewers to reflect on their own spiritual journeys while appreciating Cornwall's rich cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured over six decades ago, we are reminded of how time may pass but certain places remain timeless in their significance. Thanks to Charles Woolf's artistry behind the lens, we can still immerse ourselves in the ethereal beauty of St Clether Chapel and Holy Well today.
