EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, capturing a slice of life on Carvoza Road in Truro, Cornwall. The view down the east side of this quaint road is filled with fascinating details that transport us to a bygone era. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are drawn to the bustling scene unfolding before us. Onlookers line the pavement, their curious gazes hinting at an event or spectacle that has captured their attention. Perhaps it's a local celebration or simply everyday life passing by. In the distance, rising majestically against the sky, stands Truro Cathedral's spire. Its presence adds grandeur and serenity to this lively street scene, reminding us of Truro's rich history and architectural beauty. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Arthur Philp. Through his lens, he skillfully captures not only the physical surroundings but also manages to convey a sense of timelessness and nostalgia. This print from Royal Cornwall Museum offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in Cornwall's past; it invites contemplation about how much has changed over the years while celebrating what remains constant - community spirit and architectural marvels like Truro Cathedral.
