EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the serene gardens of Comprigney House, Truro, Cornwall, this vintage print showcases a cherished moment with three remarkable women from the Gill family. Dressed elegantly in their timeless cornish attire, they exude grace and poise as they relax on a deckchair and bench. Seated on the left is Ada, Major Arthur William Gill's beloved mother, holding a bouquet of vibrant flowers that mirrors her radiant spirit. In the center sits Ellen Gill, his aunt whose warm presence brings joy to every gathering. On the right is Emma Clinton (nee Gill), another cherished aunt who radiates an air of sophistication. The photograph was skillfully captured by none other than Major Arthur William Gill himself – a testament to his multifaceted talents beyond being part of such an esteemed lineage. The composition beautifully frames these three extraordinary women against the backdrop of lush greenery and blooming flowers. This image invites us into their world before 1916 when life unfolded at a gentler pace amidst tranquil surroundings. It serves as a poignant reminder of treasured family bonds and moments shared together in simpler times
