EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the early 1900s, we are transported back in time to Constantine, Cornwall. The image captures a delightful scene of a group of people enjoying a leisurely ride in a pony and trap. Photographer Tonkin skillfully freezes this moment, allowing us to glimpse into the past and appreciate the charm of bygone days. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the magnificent Cornish horse pulling the elegant cart. Its strong physique and gentle demeanor exemplify both power and grace. Adorned with ornate harnesses, it stands proudly as if aware of its role in creating an enchanting spectacle. Seated comfortably within the carriage are several individuals who seem to be relishing their outing. One can almost feel their excitement as they embark on this picturesque journey through Constantine's scenic landscapes. A parasol shields them from the sun's rays, adding an air of sophistication to their adventure. This snapshot not only showcases an era when such modes of transportation were commonplace but also offers insight into social dynamics at that time. It invites contemplation about how life must have been for these individuals - what stories they carried with them and what dreams lay ahead. Preserved meticulously by Royal Cornwall Museum, this print serves as a window into history, reminding us to cherish our heritage while celebrating progress made over generations.
