EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to the serene village of Calenick, Cornwall in 1912. The image showcases a picturesque thatched cottage, its white-washed walls standing out against the lush green surroundings. With its quaint charm and traditional cob construction, this cottage is a true representation of Edwardian architecture. The thatched roof adds an element of rustic beauty to the scene, evoking a sense of nostalgia for simpler times. It speaks volumes about the craftsmanship and dedication put into creating such dwellings in this Cornish village. As we gaze at this photograph, we can almost imagine ourselves stepping through time and experiencing life as it was over a century ago. Although the photographer remains unknown, their skillful composition allows us to appreciate every detail of this idyllic setting. The play between light and shadow highlights the textures on both the cottage's exterior and surrounding foliage, adding depth to an already enchanting scene. This print serves as a window into history—a glimpse into rural life during early 20th-century Cornwall. It reminds us of our connection with nature and how architectural traditions have shaped communities throughout generations. Whether displayed in homes or galleries, this image invites viewers to immerse themselves in its timeless beauty while appreciating the rich heritage preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection.
