EDITORS COMMENTS
A Cornish Christmas: The Timeless Tradition of the Cornish Waits (1936) In this evocative photograph, a group of Cornish Waits, clad in traditional attire, gather around a lantern-lit bonfire in a quaint Cornish harbour village. The date is Christmas, 1936, and the scene is one of simple, heartfelt celebration. The Cornish Waits, a centuries-old tradition, were itinerant musicians who traveled from village to village during the Christmas season, playing carols and collecting donations for the poor. Dressed in their distinctive costumes, which included long, hooded cloaks, hats adorned with ostrich feathers, and bells, they brought joy and merriment to communities throughout Cornwall. The cobbled streets of the village, lined with quaint cottages and ancient stone walls, are illuminated by the warm glow of lanterns and the flickering fire. The Waits, their faces illuminated by the flames, play their instruments with gusto, their music carrying through the crisp winter air. The sound of their melodies, a blend of ancient and modern, resonates through the village, drawing in the locals and visitors alike. The Cornish Waits tradition continues to this day, with groups of musicians carrying on the centuries-old practice of playing carols throughout the region during the Christmas season. This photograph, a snapshot of a bygone era, captures the essence of a Cornish Christmas past and present, a time of community, tradition, and the enduring power of music to bring people together.
