EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from around 1917, we catch a glimpse of Ms. Cousens, a dedicated member of the First World War Women's Land Army in Cornwall. Standing tall and proud, she is portrayed with her essential tools of the trade - a milking pail and stool. Ms. Cousens dons the distinctive uniform that symbolizes her commitment to supporting the war effort on home soil. Her attire includes sturdy boots and gaiters, ensuring protection during long hours spent working outdoors. Atop her head rests a felt hat, shielding her face from both sun and rain as she carries out her duties diligently. The focal point of this image lies in Ms. Cousens' pale fabric overalls, which serve as an emblematic representation of women breaking societal norms by engaging in traditionally male-dominated roles during wartime. These overalls are not just garments; they embody resilience, strength, and determination. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan, this snapshot captures an important moment in history when women stepped forward to fill vital positions left vacant by men serving at the frontlines during World War I. Preserved within the archives of Royal Cornwall Museum, this evocative photograph serves as a reminder of the immense contributions made by countless courageous women like Ms. Cousens throughout Cornwall and beyond during one of humanity's most challenging periods – The Great War.
