EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1923, capturing a moment in time when women were seen adventurously perched on the back of a coach in Perranporth, Cornwall. The image showcases an R. Mitchell coach parked inside a quaint garage, with its doors wide open to reveal glimpses of other vintage carriages resting nearby. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is none other than Arthur William Jordan, whose keen eye for detail beautifully captures the essence of Cornish life during that era. The women depicted exude an air of excitement and freedom as they confidently occupy their unconventional perch on the rear end of the carriage. Cornwall's rich transport history comes alive through this photograph; it serves as a testament to how people once traveled across these rugged landscapes. The presence of a ladder leaning against one side hints at either maintenance work or perhaps even an adventurous spirit within those who frequented this garage. As we admire this historical gem from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let us appreciate not only the beauty captured by Jordan's lens but also reflect upon how much has changed since then. This image stands as a reminder that women have always been partakers in exploration and adventure, defying societal norms while leaving their mark on history.
