EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of triumph at the Royal Cornwall Show, held in Camborne, Cornwall on the 13th and 14th of June in 1923. The focal point of this image is none other than the majestic King Mitchell, a proud draught horse who has just claimed victory as the first prize winner in Class 59 - the highly esteemed Draught Horse category. With his head held high and an air of regality about him, King Mitchell stands alongside his skilled handler, their bond evident even through a still photograph. The horse's powerful physique exudes strength and grace as he poses for the camera lens. Photographer Arthur William Jordan masterfully captures this significant moment in time, freezing it forever within this precious print. His keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate not only King Mitchell's undeniable beauty but also the dedication and hard work that went into preparing him for such an event. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from the Royal Cornwall Museum collection, we are transported back to a bygone era where agricultural shows were cherished community events. This particular image serves as a testament to both human-animal connection and rural heritage - reminding us of our shared history with these magnificent creatures who have played such vital roles throughout generations.
