EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the early 1900s, we are transported to a quaint corner of Cornwall known as The Post Road in Helford. A picturesque scene unfolds before our eyes, capturing the essence of Edwardian life in this idyllic riverside village. As our gaze settles upon the image, a small group of children captivate us with their innocent curiosity. Their youthful faces beam with wonder and excitement as they watch intently while photographer Arthur William Jordan captures the essence of their beloved post road. The charm of this Cornish village is beautifully preserved within the frame. Traditional houses line the cobbled street, each one exuding its own unique character and history. These humble abodes stand as silent witnesses to generations past, carrying stories untold within their timeworn walls. Beyond these charming dwellings lies a tranquil river that meanders through Helford's heart. Its sparkling waters reflect the golden hues of sunlight filtering through lush green foliage, creating an ethereal ambiance that seems almost otherworldly. This print transports us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in an era long gone but not forgotten. It serves as a poignant reminder of simpler times when children found joy in observing everyday moments unfold before them. Preserved by Royal Cornwall Museum for future generations to cherish and admire, this snapshot encapsulates both the beauty of Cornwall's landscape and the innocence embodied by its young inhabitants during those early years of the 20th century.
