EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from May 1986, we are transported back to a moment of cultural exchange and camaraderie between French wine workers and the town of Lostwithiel in Cornwall. The image captures representatives from the Gueval Wine Factory in Pleyber-Christ, Lostwithiel's twin town, as they are warmly welcomed by local dignitaries. The scene unfolds within the historic Guildhall, where the visitors are being shown around by Vic May, Chairman of the Lostwithiel Twinning Association. Mayor Ida Keast stands proudly alongside her consort Rod Keast and Deputy Mayor Gwen Powell-Jones. Their presence exudes hospitality and friendship as they showcase their Cornish regalia. This photograph is not just a testament to international connections but also highlights the significance of twinning associations in fostering cultural understanding. It symbolizes how communities can come together across borders to celebrate shared interests and traditions. The Guildhall itself serves as an impressive backdrop with its grandeur evident through its architectural details. The mayoral chain worn by Mayor Ida Keast adds an air of authority while honoring local heritage. Preserved for posterity at the Royal Cornwall Museum, this print reminds us that beyond commercial endeavors lies a world where people connect on personal levels through mutual respect and appreciation for each other's cultures.
