1892 Art Work Baden Baron Chief Citta Malta Mdina Past Powell Relic Vecchia Water Colour Scout Scouts
EDITORS COMMENTS
A Relic of the Past: This watercolor painting, created in October 1892, depicts the ancient fortified city of Mdina, Malta, also known as Citta Vecchia or the Old City. The painting, titled "Rebato," is an exquisite work of art by the renowned British artist, Lord Baden-Powell. At the time, Lord Baden-Powell was not yet the founder of the Scout Movement, but rather a distinguished military officer and artist. In this painting, Lord Baden-Powell masterfully captures the essence of Mdina's rich history and timeless beauty. The city, crowned by its ancient walls and fortifications, stands proudly against the backdrop of a tranquil landscape. The towering baroque architecture, narrow streets, and red-tiled rooftops evoke a sense of a bygone era. At the center of the painting, a figure, possibly a local chief or an officer, stands tall and proud, gazing out at the breathtaking view. The figure's presence adds a sense of scale and importance to the painting, emphasizing the significance of Mdina's past. This watercolor painting, "Rebato," is a precious relic of the past, offering a glimpse into the history and culture of Mdina, Malta, during the late 19th century. It is a testament to Lord Baden-Powell's artistic talent and his appreciation for the historical and cultural significance of the places he visited.
