EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum transports us back to a bygone era, capturing a poignant moment at the Summercourt Fair in St Enoder, Cornwall. The year is 1912, and amidst the bustling fairgrounds, we witness an unexpected scene of both tragedy and resilience. In this snapshot frozen in time, a group of men gather around a fallen horse and its handler. Their faces etched with concern and determination reveal their shared commitment to helping this majestic creature overcome its misfortune. It is evident that these individuals possess an intimate knowledge of horses - perhaps farmers or skilled handlers themselves - as they work together to assist their equine companion. The Summercourt Fair holds deep historical significance, dating all the way back to 1227 when it was established as a Charter fair. Originally held at Lower Penhale before moving to Summercourt in 1711, this annual event has been an integral part of Cornish culture for centuries. Traditionally focused on cattle and horses, it served as a vital marketplace where locals would come together to trade livestock and celebrate rural life. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan, his lens captures not just the physicality of the fallen horse but also conveys emotions that resonate across time. This image serves as a testament to human compassion and resilience while offering us glimpses into our rich agricultural heritage here in Cornwall.
