EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to a Rugby Union match in Redruth, Cornwall, around 1919. The scene is filled with raw energy as two teams clash on the field, their determination evident even through the monochromatic lens. In the foreground, players engage in a thrilling line out, bodies soaring through the air amidst a backdrop of towering trees and an old Cornish building. The atmosphere is electric as spectators fill every available space around the pitch. Their animated faces reveal their passion for this beloved sport that has united communities for generations. Amongst them stands a stoic referee, his presence commanding respect and ensuring fair play. The distinctive broad stripes worn by Cornwall's team proudly represent their heritage and evoke a sense of local pride. On the opposite side of the field stands an unknown team whose identity remains shrouded in mystery but believed to be from around 1919. Beyond its historical significance, this photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects upon rugby's enduring popularity within Cornish culture. It serves as a testament to the game's ability to bring people together across generations and transcend societal boundaries. Photographer Arthur William Jordan skillfully immortalized this spirited encounter between two teams on that fateful day almost a century ago – forever preserving it as part of Cornwall's rich sporting legacy.
