More about this scene
Here we have an early view of Towan Beach, with everyone overdressed for the seaside. A game of tennis is in progress on a court marked out in the sand. The masts of trading ships are seen in the harbour; its north pier was to be badly damaged in a north-east gale two years later. The Huer's House stands outlined on the slope above. The large Atlantic Hotel, which now dominates the headland, was not built until 1893.
