EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to Bank Square in St Just, Penwith, Cornwall, around 1920. The image showcases a vibrant carnival float outside Edwin Trembaths Photographic Studio. Stealing the spotlight are several men dressed as fishermen, their attire reflecting the rich maritime heritage of this coastal town. One gentleman stands out wearing a sea scouts jumper, adding an element of youthful enthusiasm to the scene. However, it is a young boy donning a naval uniform who truly captures our attention. Positioned within a boat cleverly mounted on a horse-drawn cart, he exudes an air of adventure and ambition beyond his years. The intricate details of this makeshift vessel are remarkable; even its gunwale boasts a notice proudly proclaiming "Liverpool across the Atlantic". The identity of the photographer remains unknown but their skill in capturing this momentous occasion cannot be denied. This photograph not only freezes time but also immortalizes the spirit and creativity that thrived during local carnivals in early 20th century Cornwall. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we can't help but imagine ourselves transported to those lively streets filled with laughter and excitement. It serves as both a testament to community pride and ingenuity while reminding us of cherished traditions that have shaped generations past in beautiful Cornish towns like St Just in Penwith.
