EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing the essence of West End, Redruth in Cornwall. The bustling street scene showcases a moment frozen in history, where horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians coexist harmoniously. Standing proudly on the corner is an outfitters shop belonging to H. W. Rippon, formerly known as J. Evans & Co. , which undoubtedly served as a hub for locals seeking fashionable attire. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia and curiosity about life during this era. It transports us to a time when daily routines were vastly different from our modern lives. As we gaze upon this snapshot from yesteryears, we can't help but wonder about the stories that unfolded within these walls and along these cobblestone streets. Part of the esteemed A. K. Hamilton Jenkin collection at Royal Cornwall Museum, this photograph holds immense historical significance for both locals and visitors alike. Although the identity of its photographer remains unknown, their skillful composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured within this frame. As we delve into Cornwall's rich heritage through images like these, it serves as a reminder of how much has changed over time while also honoring those who came before us - shaping our communities with their businesses and contributing to our shared history
