EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s takes us back in time to Truro, Cornwall. The image showcases a charming scene at the entrance of Tremorvah Lodge, where a pony and trap stand proudly. Seated on the carriage is none other than James Brown, the esteemed butcher of 11 Newbridge Street. The photograph exudes an air of simplicity and tranquility that was characteristic of this era. The horse stands patiently as Mr. Brown poses confidently for the camera, his presence commanding attention even amidst such idyllic surroundings. Cornwall's rich heritage is beautifully captured in this snapshot; it serves as a reminder of how transportation once relied on these elegant carriages pulled by majestic horses. This mode of transport symbolizes not only practicality but also status within society. Photographer Arthur William Jordan has expertly framed this moment in time with precision and artistry. His composition allows us to appreciate both the architectural beauty of Tremorvah Lodge and Mr. Brown's connection to his trusted steed. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, we are transported back to an era when men like James Brown played integral roles within their communities while relying on traditional means of transportation that have since faded into history books.
