EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to May 1989, where we find ourselves inside the prestigious Mayors Parlour in Lostwithiel, Cornwall. The room exudes an air of history and importance as it proudly displays the town's plate and other official treasures. Amongst these cherished artifacts are the oar and town sergeants mace, both reserved for ceremonial occasions that honor Lostwithiel's rich heritage. Photographer Jonathan Barker has masterfully captured this moment, allowing us a glimpse into the heart of civic pride. The composition draws our attention to a collection of jugs, visitor books, plates, and goblets adorning a beautifully crafted wooden cabinet. Each item tells its own story - tales of important visitors who have graced this very room with their presence. The photograph serves as a testament to the significance placed on tradition within this Cornish community. It reminds us that even in modern times, there is value in preserving historical customs and honoring those who came before us. Displayed at the Royal Cornwall Museum, this print invites viewers to reflect upon their own connection to their hometowns or communities. It encourages us to appreciate our local history and recognize the individuals who work tirelessly behind-the-scenes to maintain civic pride
