EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time with this print from the Royal Cornwall Museum, capturing a moment frozen in history. The image transports us to the early 1900s, where we find ourselves standing on a road above the bustling railway station of Chyandour, Penzance. As our eyes wander along this picturesque scene, we are greeted by an enchanting view looking eastward. The charm of yesteryears unfolds before us as horses gracefully trot down the road with their riders atop. These majestic creatures add an air of elegance and nostalgia to the photograph, reminding us of simpler times when horsepower was literal rather than metaphorical. Though taken by an unknown photographer, their skill is evident in every detail captured within this frame. The composition effortlessly draws our gaze towards distant buildings and rolling hills that paint a serene backdrop for this quaint Cornish town. As we immerse ourselves further into this snapshot from another era, it becomes clear that commercial use should not overshadow its true value – preserving history and evoking emotions. This print serves as a portal through which we can step into the past and appreciate how life once unfolded in Chyandour. So take a moment to admire this remarkable piece from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection; let it transport you back in time and allow your imagination to roam freely along those roads above the railway station – where echoes of hooves
