EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative sketch, titled "Tenby, Wales," captures the picturesque harbor town as it appeared in the 1840s. The scene is dominated by the imposing Tenby Castle, perched atop a rocky promontory, with its crenellated walls and towering turrets. To the left, the distinctive silhouette of Worms Head, a tidal island connected to the mainland by a causeway, can be seen jutting out into the sea. In the distance, the islands of St. Catherine's and Caldey are visible, adding to the serene and idyllic scenery. The sketch was created by the Reverend Baden Powell (1796-1860), an English clergyman and artist, who was also the father of Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scout Movement in 1907. This ink drawing showcases the artistic talent of the Reverend, who was known for his detailed and expressive sketches of Welsh landscapes and seascapes. The sketch is a testament to the beauty and charm of Tenby, a town that has retained its Victorian character and continues to attract visitors from around the world. The sketch also serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of Wales, which has inspired generations of artists, writers, and travelers. The scene depicted in this sketch has likely changed little over the years, and it continues to be a source of inspiration for artists, photographers, and visitors to this day.
