EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative sketch of Tenby Harbour, Wales, dates back to the 1840s and was created by the Reverend Baden Powell (1796-1860), the father of the renowned founder of the Scout Movement, Robert Baden-Powell. The scene captures the picturesque coastal town in the Victorian era, with its quaint harbour teeming with activity. The Reverend Powell's deft use of ink brings to life the bustling harbour, filled with a multitude of boats of various sizes and shapes, bobbing gently on the tranquil waters. The harbour buildings, with their intricate architectural details, add character and charm to the scene. The boats, with their sails billowing in the breeze, evoke a sense of adventure and exploration. Tenby, a historic seaside town located on the southwest coast of Wales, has long been a popular destination for sailors and tourists alike. The town's natural harbour, sheltered by the Pembrokeshire coast, has provided a safe haven for mariners for centuries. The Reverend Powell's sketch offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of sailing and exploring the coast were cherished experiences. The sketch also serves as a reminder of the strong connection between the Scouting Movement and the sea, with its emphasis on adventure, exploration, and the natural world.
