EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1890 showcases the picturesque "Bridge over the River Kenwyn" in Truro, Cornwall. The bridge, located at the end of St Georges Road, beautifully frames the junction of Bosvigo Lane and Comprigney Hill. Standing proudly on this historic structure are two elegant ladies and a distinguished bearded gentleman, who have graciously posed for the camera. The Victorian era charm is palpable in this image as it transports us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace. The tranquil river flowing beneath the bridge adds an element of serenity to the scene, reflecting both nature's beauty and its importance in transportation during that period. Cornwall's rich history is evident here; every detail speaks volumes about its heritage. This print captures not only architectural marvels but also glimpses into daily life during this bygone era. Photographer Arthur Philp has skillfully captured this moment in time with his keen eye for composition and attention to detail. His work allows us to appreciate not just the physical surroundings but also offers insight into how people interacted with their environment. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, we are reminded of our connection to those who came before us – their stories etched within these timeless photographs.
