EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back to a poignant moment in history during the summer of 1915. The image showcases a group of wounded soldiers, their location unknown but believed to be in Cornwall, England. These brave servicemen, bearing the physical and emotional scars of the First World War, find solace and respite amidst a serene garden setting. Surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant blooms, these heroes are joined by compassionate ladies who provide them with much-needed companionship and support. Together they form an unlikely yet heartwarming scene that speaks volumes about resilience and camaraderie in times of adversity. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only the visible wounds suffered by these soldiers but also their unwavering spirit as they embrace moments of leisure. Amidst laughter and conversation, one can almost hear the melodies emanating from an old gramophone placed at their center – serving as a reminder that even amidst chaos and destruction, there is still room for joy. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan, this remarkable piece captures both the tragedy and humanity experienced during World War One. It serves as a powerful testament to those who sacrificed so much for our freedom while reminding us of the importance of compassion and unity even in our darkest hours
