Stream leading to Dozmary Pool, Bodmin Moor, Cornwall. 1920s
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 captures the serene beauty of a stream leading to Dozmary Pool on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall in the 1920s. The image was taken by Major Arthur William Gill, a Cornishman and passionate amateur photographer who gained recognition for his stunning stills and cine film presentations during the 1920s and 1930s. Major Gill's expertise extended beyond capturing moments through his camera lens. He possessed a unique talent for transforming black-and-white glass lantern slides into vibrant works of art. Using his own hand, he meticulously painted these quarter plate slides with colors that brought them to life, leaving viewers mesmerized by their vividness. His passion for sharing the natural wonders of Cornwall 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. Through these presentations, Major Gill showcased not only the picturesque landscapes but also preserved the historical significance of these locations. The photograph itself transports us back in time to an era when nature reigned supreme. The tranquil stream meandering through Bodmin Moor evokes a sense of peace and tranquility. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our bustling lives, there are hidden gems waiting to be discovered - places where one can escape from it all and find solace in nature's embrace.
