EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the nostalgic summer of 1913, this print transports us to Newquay Harbour, Cornwall. Standing proudly against a backdrop of rugged cliffs and crashing waves, we witness a timeless scene unfold. Meet Jack and Jill Trounson, a brother and sister duo who embody the carefree spirit of childhood by engaging in an age-old task - pumping water into a bucket. Their youthful faces radiate joy as they work together with unwavering determination. The sun-kissed coastal breeze tousles their hair while glistening droplets cascade from the pump's spout into the awaiting vessel. In this simple act, they connect with nature's abundance and learn valuable lessons about self-sufficiency. The photographer remains unknown, but their lens has immortalized this precious moment forever within the J. H. Trounson collection at Royal Cornwall Museum. Through stereoscopic view technology, we are granted an immersive experience that allows us to step back in time and appreciate the innocence and wonderment that defined children's lives during those idyllic Cornish summers. This image evokes nostalgia for simpler times spent seaside; it captures both our fascination with history and our enduring love affair with coastal landscapes. As we gaze upon these young siblings immersed in their task amidst Newquay Harbor's charm, let us be reminded of the beauty found in everyday moments shared between family members – moments that continue to shape our collective memories.
