EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a picturesque view down Kenwyn Road in Truro, Cornwall. The scene showcases the charm and character of this historic city with its beautiful architecture and bustling street life. From Devonshire Terrace, built in 1909, we are treated to a stunning perspective as we gaze down the hill towards the magnificent cathedral that dominates the skyline. The grandeur of the cathedral is juxtaposed against rows of quaint houses lining both sides of the road. In this snapshot frozen in time, our attention is drawn to a group of lively boys standing on the pavement near Higher Trehaverne corner. Their youthful energy adds an animated touch to an otherwise serene setting. The photographer behind this remarkable image is Arthur Philp, whose keen eye for detail has allowed us to glimpse into Truro's past. Through his lens, he captures not just buildings and streets but also a sense of community and everyday life. As we admire this photograph print from Royal Cornwall Museum, it serves as a reminder of how much cities can change over time while still retaining their unique essence. It invites us to appreciate Truro's rich heritage and architectural beauty that continues to captivate visitors today.
