EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to the historic City Hall of Truro, Cornwall, on a significant day - the 19th of July, 1919. The image captures a momentous procession passing by City Hall along Princes Street, showcasing an impressive banner proudly displaying "Truro's Own". The photograph is a poignant reminder of the aftermath of World War One, also known as the Great War. It serves as a testament to the resilience and pride of Cornish people who played their part in this global conflict. The procession depicted here symbolizes unity and commemoration for those who served and sacrificed during these challenging times. Photographer Arthur William Jordan skillfully captured this scene with great attention to detail. His lens beautifully frames City Hall against the backdrop of Princes Street, offering us a glimpse into Truro's architectural heritage. As we observe this historical snapshot, it is impossible not to be transported back in time; imagining what life was like for those present on that summer day in 1919. This photograph stands as an invaluable piece of Cornish history preserved within the walls of Royal Cornwall Museum
