EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a picturesque view of Tresillian Village from the river in Cornwall. The perspective is taken from the road leading from Truro, offering a unique glimpse up the river towards this charming village. The focal point of this historic scene is undoubtedly the two-masted schooner gracefully resting on the river bed. Its towering masts and intricate rigging evoke a sense of adventure and maritime heritage that was once so prevalent along these shores. Behind it lies another vessel, smaller but equally intriguing with its single mast proudly reaching for the sky. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan, this image beautifully encapsulates both natural beauty and human craftsmanship. The tranquil waters reflect not only the vessels but also mirror an idyllic countryside backdrop adorned with lush greenery. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era when sailing ships dominated these waters and played a vital role in Cornwall's rich history. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed over decades while preserving our appreciation for tradition and heritage. This remarkable print captures Tresillian Village's timeless allure, inviting us to explore its past through one man's lens - Arthur William Jordan - whose work continues to inspire generations today at Royal Cornwall Museum.
