EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of "The Gardeners house, Victoria Gardens, Truro, Cornwall". Taken around 1910 by the talented photographer Arthur William Jordan, this image transports us to a bygone era. The enchanting scene showcases the charming Gardeners house nestled within the picturesque Victoria Gardens. These gardens were established as a tribute to Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897 and continue to be a beloved recreational spot for locals and visitors alike. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, our eyes are drawn to the lush greenery that surrounds the elegant house. Majestic trees stand tall, their branches reaching towards the heavens while vibrant shrubs and plants add bursts of color throughout. Meandering paths invite us on an exploration through nature's wonders. A central focal point captures our attention—a magnificent fountain gracefully spraying water into the air. Its gentle sounds provide a soothing backdrop for those seeking solace or respite from bustling city life. A sturdy stone wall encloses this idyllic sanctuary, offering both privacy and protection. This photograph is not just a mere depiction of flora; it encapsulates an entire era where leisurely strolls amidst nature were cherished moments of escape. It invites us to imagine Victorian ladies adorned in flowing dresses promenading along these very paths or children gleefully playing hide-and-seek behind towering trees. Preserved within these frames lies more than just an image—it holds memories and stories waiting to be discovered anew. Let yourself be transported back
