EDITORS COMMENTS
Transported to the early 1900s, this print captures a serene moment on the footbridge over the enchanting River Kenwyn in Newmills, Kenwyn, Cornwall. Two men lean casually on the railing of the footbridge, their gaze fixated upon the gentle flow of the river below. The idyllic scene is further enhanced by a picturesque ford behind them and a quaint hayrick propped up with a log to their right. The image exudes an air of tranquility as it transports us back in time to an era when life moved at a slower pace. The footbridge stands as both a practical crossing point and a symbol of connection between communities nestled along its banks. Possibly captured by photographer Crozier, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into everyday life in rural Cornwall during that period. It invites us to imagine what conversations these two men might have shared or what thoughts may have occupied their minds as they stood there, momentarily escaping from daily routines. Preserved within this print lies not just historical significance but also an invitation for reflection; it reminds us of simpler times when nature's beauty could captivate our attention effortlessly. A testament to human curiosity and appreciation for natural wonders, this image serves as a window into our past while inspiring contemplation about our present relationship with nature.
