EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from May 1988, we are transported back to the historic town of Lostwithiel in Cornwall. The image captures a momentous occasion - the Mayor Making ceremony that marked the beginning of an important chapter for both the town and its newly installed leader, Dennis Hutchings. Dressed in resplendent mayoral robes adorned with intricate chains and donning a distinguished top hat, Councillor Hutchings exudes an air of authority and civic pride. His bicorn hat adds a touch of regality to his appearance, symbolizing tradition and heritage deeply rooted in Cornish culture. This photograph not only commemorates Mayor Hutchings' tenure but also holds special significance as it was during his term that Her Majesty The Queen graced Lostwithiel with her presence in 1989. This visit undoubtedly brought immense honor and excitement to both Mayor Hutchings personally and the entire community he represented. Through the lens of photographer Jonathan Barker, this image immortalizes a moment when history converged with contemporary affairs. It serves as a testament to the enduring traditions of Cornwall's civic life while capturing the essence of ceremonial grandeur associated with such prestigious positions. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print invites us to reflect upon our rich cultural heritage and reminds us how individuals like Mayor Dennis Hutchings play pivotal roles in shaping our communities through their dedication and service.
