EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print from the early 1900s, showcasing Market Street in Penryn, Cornwall. As you gaze upon the image, you are transported to a bustling high street filled with life and activity. The focal point of the scene is undoubtedly the magnificent clock tower that proudly stands tall amidst a sea of people. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is believed to be Arthur William Jordan, whose keen eye for detail captured every aspect of daily life during that era. From the cornish architecture lining both sides of Market Street to the charming storefronts and shops, this photograph encapsulates a moment frozen in time. Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere as crowds meander along the cobbled streets, going about their daily routines. The hustle and bustle create an energy that resonates through each individual captured within this frame. It serves as a testament to Penryn's rich history and its significance as a thriving market town. This print from Royal Cornwall Museum not only showcases an iconic landmark but also provides us with invaluable insight into our heritage. It allows us to appreciate how much has changed over time while cherishing what remains constant - community spirit and resilience found on these very streets.
