EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1896 showcases the magnificent Trewirgie House, nestled in the picturesque town of Redruth, Cornwall. The grandeur and elegance of this Victorian-era mansion are beautifully captured in this image, transporting us back to a bygone era. In the foreground, we see two graceful ladies standing proudly in the porch of Trewirgie House. Presumably members of the esteemed Jenkin family, their attire reflects the fashion trends of their time. Their poised demeanor hints at a life filled with privilege and refinement. The architectural details of Trewirgie House are truly remarkable. Its imposing facade boasts intricate stonework and ornate windows that exude an air of opulence. Lush greenery surrounds the property, adding to its charm and creating a serene backdrop for this snapshot frozen in time. As we gaze upon this print preserved by the Royal Cornwall Museum, it serves as a window into history—a testament to both human craftsmanship and natural beauty. It allows us to appreciate not only the physical splendor of Trewirgie House but also offers glimpses into lives lived within its walls. While we can only imagine what stories lie behind these two elegant figures standing on that porch over a century ago, one thing is certain: they were partakers in an era defined by gracefulness and sophistication—an era forever immortalized through photographs like these held dear by institutions like Royal Cornwall Museum.
