EDITORS COMMENTS
Transported to the early 1900s, this print captures a timeless scene of Nancherrow Hill in Cornwall. As our gaze descends down the winding road, we are greeted by the picturesque village of Tregaseal nestled amidst the rugged beauty of St Just in Penwith. The charm and simplicity of a bygone era come alive as a delightful trio emerges from around the bend. Leading the way is an enigmatic policeman, his uniform reflecting authority and duty. Beside him, a pony gracefully pulls a quaint trap, transporting them through time with every hoofbeat. A young woman accompanies them on their ascent up Nancherrow Hill; her presence adds an air of mystery and intrigue to this enchanting tableau. The identity of the photographer remains shrouded in anonymity, yet their lens has immortalized this fleeting moment for generations to cherish. Through this remarkable image, we are transported back to an era when life moved at a slower pace—a time when simple pleasures were savored against nature's breathtaking backdrop. This print serves as both a window into history and an invitation to explore Cornwall's rich heritage. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times while reminding us that even amidst progress and change, there is enduring beauty in preserving our cultural roots.
