Restormel, Lanlivery Parish, 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.

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

The image was captured by Major Arthur William Gill, a Cornishman and talented amateur photographer who gained recognition for his stunning presentations of stills and cine film during the 1920s and 1930s. Major Gill's lecture series titled "Some Historic Cornish Beauty Spots" became highly popular among various groups including The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society, and the London Cornish Society.
