Cottages at the head of the creek, Ruan Lanihorne, Cornwall. Around 1925
Glass lantern slide from a lecture, entitled Some Historic Cornish Beauty Spots, given by Cornishman and amateur photographer, Major Arthur William Gill, in around 1925. He was well known in Cornwall and elsewhere during the 1920s and 1930s for his presentations of stills and cine film to many groups including The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society and the London Cornish Society. The quarter plate slides which he took prolifically with his ordinary camera are, in many cases, colour. These were painted by his own hand to great effect

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the charming cottages nestled at the head of the creek in Ruan Lanihorne, Cornwall. Taken around 1925 by Major Arthur William Gill, a renowned Cornishman and amateur photographer, this glass lantern slide was part of his lecture titled "Some Historic Cornish Beauty Spots". Major Gill's passion for capturing stills and cine film led him to present his work to various esteemed groups such as The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society, and the London Cornish Society during the 1920s and 1930s. His quarter plate slides were particularly remarkable as he skillfully hand-painted them with vibrant colors. In this particular image, we are transported back in time to witness the idyllic beauty of rural Cornwall. The thatched cottages exude an undeniable charm against a backdrop of lush greenery and serene waters. Each detail is meticulously captured by Major Gill's camera lens - from the intricate textures of the thatched roofs to the rustic stone walls that stand proudly amidst nature's embrace. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into Cornwall's rich history and architectural heritage. It reminds us why this region has long been celebrated for its picturesque landscapes and timeless allure.
