EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the 1980s, three proud champions of the Royal Cornwall Agricultural Show stand before their adoring crowd, their handlers beaming with pride. The setting is the picturesque town of Wadebridge in North Cornwall, where the annual three-day event attracts an approximate 120,000 visitors, making it one of the region's major tourist attractions. The trio of champions, consisting of a ram and two ewes, are bedecked with rosettes and cups, symbols of their hard-earned victories. Their coats, glistening with a sheen of sweat and natural oils, are a testament to their superior wool quality. The ram, with his impressive curved horns and powerful build, exudes strength and virility, while the ewes, with their plump, well-formed bodies and gentle expressions, embody the grace and nurturing qualities of their species. Their minders, dressed in flat caps and tweed, are the unsung heroes of this scene. Their expert knowledge, dedication, and tireless efforts have led their charges to this moment of triumph. The pride and joy on their faces reflect the deep bond between man and animal, a bond that has been forged through years of mutual respect and understanding. The Royal Cornwall Agricultural Show, held at the beginning of June each year, is a celebration of the region's rich agricultural heritage. It is a time when the community comes together to honor the hard work and dedication of farmers, breeders, and livestock handlers. This photograph captures the essence of that spirit, a snapshot of a bygone era that continues to resonate with us today.
