EDITORS COMMENTS
Transporting us back in time to the early 1900s, this print showcases the magnificent Carbis Bay Viaduct in Cornwall. Standing as a testament to engineering prowess, the viaduct gracefully spans across the picturesque countryside, connecting two charming coastal towns - Carbis Bay and St Ives. With its elegant arches and sturdy structure, it proudly carries the legacy of Great Western Railway (GWR), an iconic symbol of progress during that era. Captured by Canon Henry Holroyd Mills, a talented photographer with an eye for detail, this image offers a glimpse into a bygone era. As we gaze upon this historic scene, our eyes are drawn towards the bustling train traversing over the viaduct's tracks. The steam billowing from its engine adds an air of nostalgia and excitement to the atmosphere. Beyond the railway line lies a quaint Cornish village nestled amidst rolling hills and lush greenery. Charming houses dotting the landscape exude warmth and tranquility while ships rest peacefully on sparkling waters nearby. This harmonious blend of man-made marvels against nature's backdrop is truly mesmerizing. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print serves as a window into Cornwall's rich heritage and transport history. It invites us to appreciate not only architectural brilliance but also evokes feelings of wonderment at how people once traveled through these scenic routes
