EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a serene view of Plum Gardens along the picturesque River Fal in Kea, Cornwall. The enchanting scene unfolds from the perspective of a small boat gently gliding on the tranquil waters. The focal point of this idyllic landscape is undoubtedly the legendary Kea plum trees that line the riverbanks. These unique plums have an extraordinary history dating back around four centuries when they were first discovered. Remarkably, these succulent fruits are exclusive to Cornwall and can only be found flourishing along the banks of River Fal in Kea village. Photographer Arthur Philp skillfully captures not just a moment frozen in time but also preserves a piece of Cornish heritage through his lens. The image showcases nature's beauty at its finest, with majestic trees reaching towards clear blue skies while their branches bear abundant clusters of ripe plums. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a bygone era where life seemed simpler and more connected to nature's wonders. It serves as a reminder that amidst our fast-paced modern world, there are still pockets where tradition and natural treasures thrive harmoniously. This remarkable print from Royal Cornwall Museum allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and the cultural significance it holds for Cornwall—a testament to its rich history and unique offerings like these precious Kea plums found nowhere else on Earth.
