Jigsaw Puzzles from Royal Cornwall Museum
Godolphin House, Breage, Cornwall. Around 1925
The main facade; a collonade of massive granite pillars leads into the quadrangle through an old Jacobean doorway with carved oak doors. Glass lantern slide from a lecture, entitled Some Historic Cornish Beauty Spots, given by Cornishman and amateur photographer, Major Arthur William Gill, in around 1925. He was well known in Cornwall and elsewhere during the 1920s and 1930s for his presentations of stills and cine film to many groups including The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society and the London Cornish Society. The quarter plate slides which he took prolifically with his ordinary camera are, in many cases, colour. These were painted by his own hand to great effect

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of Godolphin House, located in Breage, Cornwall around 1925. The main facade is adorned with a magnificent collonade composed of massive granite pillars that lead into the quadrangle. Through an old Jacobean doorway with intricately carved oak doors, one can enter this historic house steeped in architectural beauty. The image was captured by Major Arthur William Gill, a renowned Cornishman and amateur photographer during the early 20th century. Major Gill was highly regarded for his presentations of stills and cine film to various esteemed groups such as The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society, and the London Cornish Society. What sets Major Gill's work apart is his meticulous attention to detail and artistic flair. His quarter plate slides were taken prolifically using an ordinary camera but were transformed into vibrant color images through his own hand-painted technique. This unique approach adds depth and richness to each photograph he produced. Godolphin House stands as a testament to Cornish heritage and has become part of the National Trust's portfolio. Its significance lies not only in its architectural splendor but also in its historical importance within the local community. This remarkable print offers us a glimpse into both Major Gill's talent as a photographer and Godolphin House's timeless elegance that continues to captivate visitors today.
