EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 1900s, capturing a moment in time at the Packet Memorial on The Moor in Falmouth, Cornwall. Standing proudly amidst its surroundings, this memorial pays homage to the historic Packet Service that operated from 1688 to 1852. In this snapshot of history, we see a bustling street scene filled with Cornish men going about their daily lives. The elegant street lamps cast a warm glow upon the pavement as people traverse along the road. Vibrant flags flutter gently in the breeze, adding a touch of color and festivity to the atmosphere. Dominating the background is an architectural gem - the Passmore Edwards Building - standing tall behind the memorial. Its grandeur adds depth and character to this already picturesque setting. A prominent clock tower stands nearby, reminding passersby of time's relentless march forward. Majestic trees frame this scene, providing shade and tranquility amidst all activity. One can't help but notice a charming shelter nestled within this vibrant landscape; perhaps it offers respite for weary travelers or serves as a meeting point for locals. Preserved by an unknown photographer's lens, this print captures not just physical structures but also snippets of life during that era – moments frozen in time forever thanks to Royal Cornwall Museum's dedication to preserving our rich heritage.
