EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back to a significant moment in history - the laying of the foundation stone for Truro Cathedral on 20th May 1880. The image transports us to a time when Truro, nestled in the picturesque county of Cornwall, was abuzz with excitement and anticipation. The photograph captures an awe-inspiring scene as crowds gather around the construction site, eagerly awaiting this monumental event. Amongst them are distinguished figures such as clergy members and skilled masons, all present to witness this historic occasion. Their presence signifies not only their dedication to their craft but also their shared belief in creating a spiritual sanctuary that would stand tall for generations. At the center of attention stands none other than the Prince of Wales himself, later known as Edward VII. With great dignity and importance, he lays the foundation stone - symbolizing his commitment towards supporting religious endeavors within his realm. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot remains unknown; however, they have masterfully captured both grandeur and intimacy within a single frame. The composition allows us to feel immersed in this momentous event while simultaneously appreciating every intricate detail. As we gaze upon this print today, it serves as a testament to human ambition and devotion throughout history. It reminds us of our ability to create enduring structures that transcend time itself - structures like Truro Cathedral which still grace Cornwall's skyline over a century later.
