EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the picturesque Tresillian Bridge in Cornwall, taken around 1925. The image captures the bridge from the east River Fal bank on the Tregothnan estate during high tide. However, this tranquil scene holds a significant historical event within its frame. It was at Tresillian Bridge that the defeated Hopton forces, Royalist troops of King Charles, surrendered to Parliamentarians on March 10th, 1646. The glass lantern slide featuring this photograph was part of Major Arthur William Gill's lecture titled "Some Historic Cornish Beauty Spots". Major Gill, a proud Cornishman and amateur photographer, gained recognition throughout Cornwall and beyond during the 1920s and 1930s for his presentations of both still images and cine film. He shared his work with various groups such as The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society, and even the London Cornish Society. Major Gill's quarter plate slides were particularly remarkable due to their vibrant colors. These stunning hues were meticulously hand-painted by him to enhance their visual impact. This particular print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also represents Major Gill's dedication to preserving and sharing Cornwall's rich history through his artistic lens.
