EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, during the tumultuous era of World War One. The image showcases the imposing facade of the Royal Naval Auxiliary Hospital, located on Tregolls Road in Truro, Cornwall. This historic building served as a vital medical facility during the war and played a crucial role in caring for wounded servicemen. The hospital's grand architecture is beautifully captured by renowned photographer Arthur William Jordan, who skillfully frames this moment frozen in time. The intricate details of the building's design are evident, showcasing its significance within the community and its contribution to supporting those affected by conflict. As we delve into Cornish history through this photograph, it becomes apparent that this hospital was not just a place of healing but also an emblem of resilience and compassion. It stood as a testament to Cornwall's unwavering commitment to aiding those impacted by war. Today, thanks to institutions like the Royal Cornwall Museum, we can appreciate these glimpses into our past and honor those who dedicated their lives to serving others during times of great adversity. Let us remember their sacrifices as we reflect upon this poignant image from our shared heritage.
