EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from around 1913, we are transported back in time to witness the elegance and charm of a Hupmobile Tourer motor car. The vintage vehicle stands proudly, adorned with a unique horse mascot perched upon its bonnet, adding an air of sophistication to its already striking presence. The scene is set with three passengers comfortably seated inside the car, their attire reflecting the fashion trends of that era. Their expressions suggest excitement and anticipation for the journey ahead. Meanwhile, our attention is drawn to the driver who dons a cap, hinting at his role as possibly being a chauffeur entrusted with navigating these early automobiles. Captured by T. H. Williams, this photograph not only freezes a moment in history but also offers us glimpses into society's evolving relationship with transportation during that period. It serves as a testament to the technological advancements and growing fascination surrounding motor vehicles. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this image invites us to appreciate both the artistry behind early photography and the cultural significance of automobiles in shaping our world today. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot from yesteryears, it sparks curiosity about how far we have come since then while reminding us of our shared heritage and collective progress throughout generations.
