EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the old entrance arch of Tolverne Barton, located in Philleigh, Cornwall. Taken around 1925 by Major Arthur William Gill, a renowned Cornishman and amateur photographer, this image is part of a glass lantern slide from one of his lectures titled "Some Historic Cornish Beauty Spots". Tolverne Barton was once an Arundel property, steeped in history and charm. Major Gill's passion for capturing the beauty of Cornwall shines through in this photograph. Known for his presentations of stills and cine film during the 1920s and 1930s, he shared his love for Cornwall with various groups such as The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society, and the London Cornish Society. What makes Major Gill's work truly remarkable is that many of his quarter plate slides were hand-painted by him to enhance their visual impact. This attention to detail adds depth and vibrancy to each image. The Royal Cornwall Museum proudly preserves this exceptional piece showcasing Major Arthur William Gill's talent as both a photographer and artist. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage found within the stunning landscapes of Cornwall.
