EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1917 showcases Mrs Alfred Martin, the owner of Tregavethan Farm in Truro, Cornwall. In this poignant image, we see her tenderly feeding a loyal dog, capturing a moment of compassion amidst the tumultuous backdrop of World War I. Tregavethan Farm held significant importance during this time as it served as a training center for the Women's Land Army. This organization played a vital role in supporting agriculture and farming efforts on the home front during wartime. Mrs Alfred Martin's involvement at Tregavethan demonstrates not only her dedication to her farm but also her commitment to contributing to the war effort. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Arthur William Jordan, whose lens beautifully captures both the strength and vulnerability present in this scene. The Cornish landscape serves as an evocative backdrop with its rustic buildings and hints of winter weather reflected by Mrs Alfred Martin's warm overcoat. This print offers us a glimpse into life during one of history's most challenging periods—a testament to resilience and unity in times of adversity. It reminds us that even amidst great turmoil, acts of kindness and care can still flourish within our communities.
