Truro Cathedral, Cornwall: A Glimpse into the Past". This print takes us back to the enchanting landscape of Truro, Cornwall, circa 1925. Captured from the serene Truro River by Boscawen Park, it offers a unique perspective on this iconic landmark. In the foreground stands Malletts duty-free warehouse, a testament to the bustling commercial activity that once thrived in this riverside area. The man behind this remarkable image is Major Arthur William Gill – a true Cornishman and passionate amateur photographer. His talent and dedication made him well-known throughout Cornwall and beyond during the 1920s and 1930s. Major Gill's presentations of stills and cine film were highly sought after by prestigious groups such as The Royal Institution of Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society, and even the London Cornish Society. What sets Major Gill apart is his artistic touch. Not only did he capture countless quarter plate slides with his ordinary camera but also enhanced some of them with his own hand-painted details. This personal touch adds an exquisite charm to certain images that truly captivate viewers. As we gaze upon this stunning photograph print today, let us appreciate not just its historical significance but also acknowledge Major Arthur William Gill's immense contribution to preserving our heritage through his exceptional photographic skills.
