Jigsaw Puzzles from Royal Cornwall Museum
Bodmin Church and the ruined chapel, Cornwall. Around 1925
Glass lantern slide from a lecture, entitled Some Historic Cornish Beauty Spots, given by Cornishman and amateur photographer, Major Arthur William Gill, in around 1925. He was well known in Cornwall and elsewhere during the 1920s and 1930s for his presentations of stills and cine film to many groups including The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society and the London Cornish Society. The quarter plate slides which he took prolifically with his ordinary camera are, in many cases, colour. These were painted by his own hand to great effect

This print showcases the stunning Bodmin Church and its adjacent ruined chapel in Cornwall, dating back to around 1925. The image was captured by Major Arthur William Gill, a Cornishman renowned for his talent as an amateur photographer during the early 20th century. Major Gill's expertise extended beyond photography, as he also delivered captivating lectures on Cornish beauty spots using glass lantern slides like this one. Major Gill's presentations were highly regarded and attracted audiences from various prestigious organizations such as The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society, and the London Cornish Society. His dedication to capturing stills and cine film allowed him to share the vibrant history and natural wonders of Cornwall with these groups.
