EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 1900s with this print of Rosemundy House, nestled in the picturesque village of St Agnes, Cornwall. The view showcases the grandeur and charm of this historic residence, complete with a meticulously maintained front garden that exudes tranquility. As we peer through the lower bay window to the right, two young women dressed in nursing uniforms catch our attention. Their caring presence is palpable as one tenderly cradles a toddler while engaging in conversation with her companion. Just outside the window stands a pram, patiently awaiting its little occupant who sits contentedly inside. The photographer's identity may remain unknown, but their skillful composition captures not only the architectural beauty of Rosemundy House but also offers us a glimpse into everyday life during that era. It transports us to an age where perambulators were commonplace and garden chairs provided respite amidst nature's splendor. This snapshot from Cornwall's past evokes nostalgia for simpler times when nurses cared for families within their own homes and babies were lovingly nurtured under watchful eyes. A bed screen discreetly placed nearby hints at privacy and comfort within these walls. Royal Cornwall Museum invites you to immerse yourself in history through this remarkable image – an invaluable testament to bygone days filled with warmth, care, and cherished moments.
