EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s transports us to the serene village of Constantine in Cornwall. The focal point is the magnificent Constantine Church, standing proudly amidst a backdrop of lush greenery. From this south-eastern perspective, we are granted an enchanting view of its architectural splendor and timeless beauty. As our gaze wanders towards the right, two men can be seen standing thoughtfully in the churchyard's ancient graveyard. Their presence adds a touch of human connection to this tranquil scene, reminding us that history is not just about grand structures but also about those who have left their mark on these hallowed grounds. The photographer behind this remarkable image was Tonkin, whose lens skillfully captured every intricate detail with precision and artistry. This photograph serves as a testament to his talent and dedication to preserving moments frozen in time. Cornwall's rich heritage is further emphasized by the abundance of headstones scattered throughout the cemetery. Each one tells a unique story, etched into stone as a lasting tribute to those who once called Constantine home. This print holds immense historical value for both locals and enthusiasts alike. It allows us to immerse ourselves in Cornwall's past while appreciating its natural beauty and architectural wonders. As we admire this snapshot from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let it serve as a reminder that our roots shape who we are today – connecting us through time and space with those who came before us.
