EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of inspection of scout troops on Palace Square in Valletta, Malta, on 13 March 1915. The scene is filled with a sense of history and tradition as Lord Methuen, Admiral Limpus, and Cardinal Carnana inspect the young scouts, all dressed in their uniforms, standing at attention. The classical neoclassical architecture of the buildings in the background, with their porticoes, columns, and pillars, add to the grandeur of the occasion. The scouts, boys full of energy and eagerness, are seen marching in formation, carrying their flags, while their leaders, Lord Methuen, Admiral Limpus, and Cardinal Carnana, stand tall and stern, observing the inspection with great seriousness. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when scouting was a burgeoning movement, and Malta was still under British rule. The presence of the Roman Catholic Cardinal Carnana underscores the importance of religion and religious institutions in Maltese society during that era. This photograph is a significant historical record of a moment in time, capturing the spirit of scouting and the rich cultural heritage of Valletta, Malta.
