Le Breiz Connection
The Maritime museum welcomed some special visitors from Brittany last week to see their new exhibition which celebrates the links between the Cornish and Breton communities. The museum's new Breton Connection exhibition explores the age-old ties between Cornish and Breton fishing communities through a stunning collection of black and white photography. These images have never been exhibited before and draw on a rare collection of photographs taken by Oliver Hill in Newlyn in the early 20th century. The Breton Connection exhibition runs from until July 15 at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall, in Falmouth.
