The image captures a smartly dressed family standing proudly outside their charming and slightly overgrown cottages. It is a delightful glimpse into Edwardian life in rural Cornwall. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the family themselves, exuding an air of elegance and sophistication. The women don fashionable attire, showcasing the latest Edwardian fashion trends with their long skirts and stylish hats. The children, full of youthful energy, add a touch of innocence to the scene as they stand alongside their parents. Beyond the family's radiant presence lies a quaint post office building that serves as a backdrop to this snapshot in time. Its rustic charm perfectly complements the idyllic surroundings of Helford village. Photographer Arthur William Jordan has skillfully captured not only an exquisite moment but also preserved valuable insights into Cornish history. This print offers us a window into an era where simplicity intertwined with refined aesthetics. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, we cannot help but be captivated by its timeless beauty and nostalgic allure.
