EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1904, we are transported back in time to Bunkers Hill, a quaint fishing village nestled in the picturesque St Ives, Cornwall. The image captures a serene view looking up the hill, adorned with charming cottages and towering chimneys that dot the skyline. At the center of attention stand an older man and two young girls, frozen in time as they strike a pose for the photographer. Their clothing reflects the fashion trends of Edwardian era; their outfits exude elegance and sophistication. The man dons a tailored suit complete with a dapper hat while his companions wear delicate dresses paired with stylish headpieces. A fascinating detail catches our eye - sailors' flap fronted trousers hung out to dry on one of the tall chimneys on the left side of the picture. This serves as a reminder of Bunkers Hill's close ties to its maritime heritage and perhaps hints at stories waiting to be told about seafaring adventures. The photograph is credited to John Charles Burrow, whose keen eye captured not only people but also glimpses into daily life during this period. With its rich historical context and remarkable composition, this print offers us an intimate glimpse into early 20th-century Cornish village life. Displayed proudly at Royal Cornwall Museum, this snapshot transports viewers back in time through its depiction of Edwardian fashion trends, traditional chimney-lined streetscapes, and hints at Bunkers Hill's connection to seafaring traditions – all encapsulated within one
