EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1961, capturing a glimpse of the past at Trevowhan in Morvah, Cornwall. The focus of this image is on the old outbuildings that stand proudly amidst the rugged landscape. A stone-built barn takes center stage, its weathered facade telling tales of years gone by. What sets it apart are the external steps leading to an upper storey, adding a touch of architectural intrigue. As our eyes wander beyond the barn's walls, we discover a yard filled with remnants of agricultural history. Old farm machinery stands silently as witnesses to days when manual labor was paramount. One particular piece catches our attention - a worn seat bearing the inscription "DAVEY SLEEP & CO". This detail adds an element of mystery and invites us to ponder about its significance within local farming lore. The photographer behind this remarkable composition is Charles Woolf, whose keen eye for detail has immortalized this slice of Cornish heritage. Through his lens, he captures not just buildings and machinery but also whispers from generations past. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this print serves as a visual time capsule that allows us to reflect upon our roots and appreciate how far we have come. It reminds us that beneath progress lies stories waiting patiently to be discovered – stories etched into every stone and engraved onto every artifact found in these ancient outbuildings at Trevowhan in Morvah.
