EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of Cathedral Lane, Truro, Cornwall, taken in the early 1900s. The focal point of the image is E. A. Philps shop, known as the Cathedral Lane Novelty Bazaar, located at No. 9 on this charming street. As you gaze upon the storefront display, a myriad of photographs showcasing Truro Cathedral and other scenic wonders catch your eye. This snapshot offers a glimpse into an era where local shops were not only places to purchase goods but also served as gateways to explore the beauty of Cornwall through imagery. The intricate details captured by either Arthur William Jordan or Arthur Philp transport us to a time when photography was still in its infancy. The faded sepia tones evoke nostalgia and curiosity about life during that period – what conversations took place within those walls? What stories did these images inspire? This photograph invites us to imagine ourselves strolling down Cathedral Lane over a century ago, soaking up the sights and sounds of Truro's bustling streets. As we admire this historical gem from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let us appreciate how it connects us to our past while reminding us that even amidst change and progress, there will always be treasures worth preserving for generations to come.
