EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to Cowlings Mill, nestled along the picturesque Cowlands Creek in Kea, Cornwall. The year is approximately 1910, and a sunny summer's day has cast its golden glow upon this idyllic scene. As we gaze at the image, our eyes are drawn to a group of people who have paused their activities to pose for the camera. The photographer behind this remarkable shot is none other than Arthur William Jordan. His skilled eye captures not only the beauty of nature but also the essence of community life during that era. The creek itself meanders gracefully through the landscape, reflecting vibrant shades of blue and green as it winds its way towards Truro. In this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the warmth of sun-kissed skin and hear laughter echoing across the water. It serves as a reminder that even over a century ago, people sought solace and joy amidst nature's embrace. As we admire this piece from afar, let us appreciate its historical significance rather than any commercial use it may hold today. This photograph allows us to glimpse into an era long gone by - one where simplicity reigned supreme and moments like these were cherished forevermore in timeless prints like this one found within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection.
