EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling city of Truro, Cornwall, around 1920. The image captures the entrance to Hicks garage on Lemon Street, offering a glimpse into the vibrant automotive scene of that era. Through the arched entrance, we can see several motor cars parked inside and even one visible through a window. It is fascinating to note the absence of petrol pumps outside at this point in history; they would be added later as technology advanced. The photographer, Arthur William Jordan, skillfully frames this scene from across the road, allowing us to appreciate both the architectural beauty of Hicks garage and its significance within Truro's urban landscape. This historic building would eventually transform into Lemon Street Market over time. The photograph evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era when automobiles were still relatively new and rapidly changing society. It offers a unique perspective on how cities like Truro adapted to accommodate these modern machines. As we study this image captured by Jordan with great attention to detail, it reminds us not only of our rich Cornish heritage but also serves as a testament to human progress and innovation throughout history.
