EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to possibly Farms Common, Wendron, during the early months of 1915. The image showcases two distinguished officers on horseback, with the leftmost figure believed to be Lieutenant Colonel Williams. They exude an air of authority and confidence as they oversee a group of foot soldiers marching along a road. The scene is filled with historical details that transport us to this significant era. In the background, we catch a glimpse of an automobile, reminding us that this was a time when modern technology began intertwining with traditional military practices. The presence of both horses and cars symbolizes the transitional nature of warfare during World War I. As our gaze wanders through the photograph, we notice charming stone walls lining either side of the road. These structures stand as silent witnesses to countless journeys taken by troops throughout history. A signpost stands tall nearby, pointing towards Helston – perhaps indicating their destination or marking their progress on this route march. Photographer Arthur William Jordan skillfully captures not only a moment frozen in time but also emotions and stories untold within these brave men's hearts. This poignant snapshot serves as a reminder of sacrifice and duty during one of humanity's most challenging periods.
