EDITORS COMMENTS
This print offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the interior of Probus School in Cornwall during what is believed to be the early 1900s. Founded in 1852 specifically for the middle classes of Cornwall, this educational institution holds great historical significance within its walls. The image showcases a dormitory scene, where rows of beds neatly line up against the walls. Each bed tells a story of countless dreams and aspirations nurtured within these very confines. The attention to detail captured by photographer Ernest Charles Argall is remarkable. Tin wash bowls sit atop wooden dressers, reflecting an era when simplicity prevailed over extravagance. Mugs and towels are carefully arranged on shelves nearby, providing essential comforts for students navigating their academic journeys. Probus School's legacy as a boarding school shines through this photograph, evoking memories of camaraderie among classmates who shared not only classrooms but also living spaces. It serves as a testament to the dedication and commitment that generations have poured into education in Cornwall. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how far education has come since those early days at Probus School. This image invites us to reflect on our own educational experiences while honoring those who came before us – individuals whose pursuit of knowledge paved the way for future generations seeking enlightenment and growth within these hallowed halls.
