EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print from the Royal Cornwall Museum. Taken around 1900, it transports us to the Wheal Trannack Mine in Sithney, Cornwall. The image showcases a remarkable juxtaposition of elements that define the region's rich history. In the foreground, we are greeted by an intricate network of stamps and a majestic waterwheel. These powerful machines were integral to the mining process, tirelessly crushing ore and extracting precious minerals from deep within the earth. Their imposing presence serves as a reminder of both human ingenuity and relentless perseverance. As our gaze shifts towards the background, we are treated to a breathtaking sight: the viaduct for Helston branch line spanning across lush green fields. Against this picturesque backdrop, a steam train gracefully traverses its tracks alongside carriages filled with passengers eagerly embarking on their journey. The photographer behind this extraordinary snapshot remains unknown; however, their skillful composition allows us to immerse ourselves fully in this moment frozen in time.
