EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time at Trewithen House, Probus, Cornwall on the 27th of July, 1905. The main facade of this magnificent country house takes center stage as a band on the lush lawn pauses for a well-deserved break. It appears to be an enchanting garden party, with elegantly dressed ladies and gentlemen strolling through the meticulously manicured gardens while others listen attentively to the music. Trewithen House holds great historical significance as it was purchased and developed by Philip Hawkins back in 1715. Remarkably, it has remained within the ownership of his family ever since. Today, this architectural gem proudly boasts its Grade I listed status. The photographer behind this remarkable image is believed to be Arthur William Jordan. His keen eye beautifully captures every detail - from the intricate brass instruments played by talented musicians to stylish bowler hats adorning gentlemen's heads and delicate parasols shielding ladies from the summer sun. This evocative snapshot provides us with a glimpse into Edwardian-era Cornwall; an era defined by elegance, refinement, and grandeur. As we admire this piece of history preserved through photography, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous occasion at Trewithen House that continues to captivate our imagination today.
