EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque village of Ponsanooth, Cornwall, in the year 1902. The image captures a moment frozen in history, as two men proudly pose with their bicycles against the backdrop of this idyllic countryside. The photographer remains unknown, but their skill is evident in the composition and clarity of this snapshot. The attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the subjects but also the surrounding landscape. Lush green fields stretch out behind them, while quaint cottages peek through trees on either side of the road. Cycling was gaining popularity during this era as a means of transportation and leisure activity. These two men epitomize that spirit as they stand confidently beside their trusty steeds. Their attire reflects both practicality and style - sporting flat caps, tailored jackets, and sturdy boots. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a reminder of simpler times when life moved at a slower pace. It transports us back to an era where cycling offered freedom and adventure amidst nature's beauty. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print provides a glimpse into our rich cultural heritage. It invites us to reflect on how much has changed over time while celebrating Cornwall's timeless charm captured by anonymous photographers who have left an indelible mark on our collective memory.
