EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing general view of Truro, Cornwall from Poltisco, taken after 1910 by the talented photographer Arthur William Jordan. From the vantage point in the southwest, we are treated to an expansive vista that showcases the city's rich history and architectural marvels. In this snapshot of time, our eyes are drawn to several prominent landmarks that define Truro's character. The bustling Town Quay stands proudly along the river Kenwyn, its waters reflecting the vibrant energy of this thriving Cornish town. Lemon Quay comes into view with its lively street scene and charming shops lining its edges. The completion of Truro Cathedral takes center stage in this photograph, exuding grandeur and grace against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. Its towering spires reach towards heaven as if inviting all who gaze upon it to seek solace within its hallowed walls. As we explore further into this visual narrative, our attention is captured by other notable features such as Back Quay and bridges like Lemon Bridge and Carvedras Viaduct. These structures not only facilitate movement but also add depth and charm to Truro's urban landscape. Moresk Hall adds a touch of elegance amidst nature's beauty, nestled harmoniously within this picturesque setting. This remarkable print serves as a testament to both Cornwall's natural splendor and Truro's enduring legacy as a vibrant city steeped in history.
