EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant School Sports Day in Perranporth, Perranzabuloe, Cornwall during the 1920s. The image beautifully captures a moment of youthful energy and excitement as it showcases the start of a girls' race in an expansive field. Renowned photographer Arthur William Jordan skillfully freezes this fleeting moment in time, allowing us to witness the sheer joy and determination etched on these young athletes' faces. The scene is filled with anticipation as the girls eagerly await the signal to begin their spirited dash across the grassy terrain. Their school uniforms flutter gently in the breeze, adding a touch of nostalgia to this remarkable snapshot from history. One can almost hear their laughter and feel their camaraderie permeating through this timeless photograph. Perranporth's stunning natural backdrop serves as an idyllic setting for such an event, with rolling hills stretching into the distance under a sky that seems endless. This image not only celebrates sportsmanship but also encapsulates Cornwall's rich heritage and love for outdoor activities. Preserved by Royal Cornwall Museum, this print invites us to reflect upon our own memories of school days gone by while marveling at how much has changed over time. It serves as a poignant reminder of youthful exuberance and reminds us that even amidst challenges or uncertainties, there will always be moments worth cherishing - just like those captured within this extraordinary piece of history.
