Two women milking cows in a field, St Just in Penwith, Cornwall. Late 1800s
A stereoscopic view of two women milking cows in a field in the St Just in Penwith area. Three farm buildings are in the background. It is possible that the cows being milked are Welsh Blacks. This breed of cattle is said to have been very similar to the now extinct breed, the Cornish Black, sharing the same characteristics of being smaller in size than most cattle and having white horns with black tips. Photographer: Arthur William Jordan

The picturesque scene is framed by three rustic farm buildings standing proudly in the background. As we delve into this historical image, it becomes apparent that the cows being milked are possibly Welsh Blacks, a breed known for its resemblance to the now-extinct Cornish Black cattle. The composition of this stereoscopic view beautifully highlights the simplicity and harmony of rural life during Victorian times. The women sit gracefully on their three-legged milking stools, expertly tending to their dairy cows with utmost care and precision. Their connection with these gentle creatures is evident as they engage in this timeless agricultural practice. Arthur William Jordan's keen eye as a photographer allows us to glimpse into an era when farming was at the heart of Cornwall's countryside.
