EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from June 1925, we are transported back in time to the serene and mystical St Clether Chapel in Cornwall. The image presents a general view of the chapel, showcasing its rustic charm and timeless beauty. As our eyes wander through the frame, they are drawn to a lady seated on the bank at the left-hand side, gracefully holding a parasol. Her presence adds an air of elegance and tranquility to the scene. Photographer Herbert Hughes skillfully captures not only the architectural details of St Clether Chapel but also its spiritual significance. This ancient place of worship is known for its Cornish cross and holy well, both symbols deeply rooted in local folklore and religious traditions. The photograph transports us into a moment frozen in time, allowing us to imagine what life was like during that summer day almost a century ago. It invites contemplation about faith, history, and our connection with nature. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, it is important to appreciate it as more than just an artifact; it serves as a window into our past—a testament to human creativity and devotion. Let us cherish these glimpses into history that remind us of our roots while inspiring future generations with their enduring beauty.
