EDITORS COMMENTS
St Michael and All Angels Church, Castle Frome: A Victorian Sketch by Reverend Baden Powell, Father of Scouting This evocative sketch of St Michael and All Angels Church in Castle Frome, Herefordshire, was created by the Reverend Baden Powell in 1858. The Reverend, who is best known as the father of Scouting, captured the essence of this beautiful Victorian-era church with its intricate stonework and picturesque setting. The church, which dates back to the 13th century, is a prominent landmark in the village of Castle Frome. Its name, St Michael and All Angels, reflects the Christian belief in the presence of the Archangel Michael and all the angels in the presence of God. The church's Gothic architecture is a testament to the rich history and tradition of the region. Reverend Baden Powell, who was born in 1796, was a prolific artist as well as a clergyman. His sketches and watercolors, which often depicted religious sites and landscapes, were widely admired during his time. This particular sketch of St Michael and All Angels Church in Castle Frome is a prime example of his artistic talent and his deep connection to the natural world and the spiritual heritage of his community. The Reverend's son, Robert Baden-Powell, went on to found the Scout Movement in 1907, which has since become a global organization dedicated to the development of young people. Although this sketch predates the founding of the Scouts by more than 50 years, it is a reminder of the strong connection between the Reverend's spiritual and artistic pursuits and the values of the Scouting Movement, which include respect for nature, community, and personal growth.
