EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of the Forty Steps in Kenwyn, Cornwall, taken during the early 1900s. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported to a bygone era where three young boys sit comfortably on the steps, their youthful energy palpable even through black and white. Behind them stands a gentleman, his presence exuding an air of authority and guidance. The view from the bottom of Forty Steps offers a glimpse into daily life in Victorian Truro. The architecture surrounding these stone steps tells tales of times long past, while the towering oak tree on the right serves as a steadfast witness to generations gone by. It is remarkable to note that this very tree continued to grace its surroundings even until 2018 when this photograph was acquired by Royal Cornwall Museum. Though captured by an unknown photographer, their lens has immortalized a moment frozen in time - one that invites us to reflect upon our own journeys up metaphorical staircases. This image speaks volumes about community and resilience; it reminds us that despite changing landscapes and passing years, some things endure. As you admire this piece of Cornish history, let your imagination wander along those worn steps and contemplate how much has changed since those young boys sat there so many decades ago.
