EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum transports us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a moment of tranquility and reverence within the Church of St Sithney in Sithney, Cornwall. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the exquisite font, beautifully captured by photographer Herbert Hughes. The font itself stands as a testament to Cornish religious heritage, its intricate design reflecting both the skill and devotion that went into its creation. With its weathered stone exterior and delicate carvings, it exudes an aura of sacredness that has withstood the test of time. As we explore further into this snapshot of history, our eyes are drawn towards a stunning stained glass window adorning one side of the church. Its vibrant colors illuminate the space with ethereal light, casting dancing hues upon wooden pews and kneelers below. In this quiet corner of worship, one can almost feel a sense of serenity permeating through every inch. It's as if time has stood still within these hallowed walls; where generations have come to seek solace or offer prayers for centuries past. This print serves not only as a visual record but also as a reminder that religion holds deep roots within Cornish culture. It invites us to reflect on our own spiritual connections while appreciating the artistry and craftsmanship that enriches places like Sithney Parish Church.
