Cornishman and amateur photographer, Major Arthur William Gill, 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 some cases, painted by his own hand to great effect

EDITORS COMMENTS
A glimpse into the past: A group of cyclists, Cornwall. Around 1900. This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing a lively group of cyclists exploring the picturesque landscapes of Cornwall. The image was skillfully captured by Major Arthur William Gill, a Cornishman and talented amateur photographer who gained recognition during the 1920s and 1930s for his remarkable presentations of stills and cine film. In this particular photograph, we see men and women alike embracing the freedom that bicycles brought to their lives. Their stylish attire reflects the fashion trends of the era, with women donning elegant hats that add an air of sophistication to their cycling adventures. The scenic backdrop showcases Cornwall's breathtaking beauty, reminding us why it has long been cherished as a haven for nature enthusiasts. Major Gill's passion for photography shines through in every detail captured on this quarter plate slide. His meticulous attention to composition is evident, but what truly sets his work apart is his artistic touch - some slides are even painted by his own hand, creating stunning visual effects that enhance each image's allure. This print serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to Major Arthur William Gill's talent behind the lens. It offers us a window into an era when bicycles were not just modes of transportation but symbols of liberation and exploration. Let your imagination wander back in time as you admire this mesmerizing piece from Royal Cornwall Museum.
