EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the Charm of Cornwall: A Glimpse into Probus' Past". Step back in time with this print from 1907, showcasing the quaint cottages that lined the main street of Probus, Cornwall. The row of slate-roofed houses exudes a timeless charm, their sturdy structures standing proudly against the backdrop of Churchtown. In this snapshot frozen in history, we witness two elegant ladies and a young child standing by a garden gate, adding life to the idyllic scene. Their presence hints at the daily rhythms and close-knit community that once thrived within these walls. Photographer Samuel John Govier skillfully captures every intricate detail - from the weathered stone exteriors to meticulously maintained front gardens bursting with vibrant blooms. This image transports us to an era where simplicity reigned supreme and nature's beauty was cherished. Probus itself is steeped in history; its rich heritage can be traced back centuries. Trunk Hill stands as a silent sentinel opposite one of these charming cottages while serving as a reminder of times gone by. This remarkable print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact, offering viewers an intimate glimpse into Cornwall's past. It evokes nostalgia for simpler days and invites us to appreciate the enduring allure of rural life amidst picturesque landscapes.
