EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor painting depicts a serene view of Lake Victoria Nyanza from Government House in Entebbe, Uganda, during the 1930s. The tranquil lake, the largest in Africa, reflects the vibrant colors of the setting sun, casting a warm glow over the surrounding landscape. In the foreground, the red-roofed Government House stands proudly, with its flag pole flying the Union Jack, a symbol of British rule during that era. To the right, a lush garden adorns the property, adding a touch of greenery and charm to the scene. A group of scouts, dressed in their uniforms, can be seen gathered near the lake's edge. They appear to be engaged in an activity, possibly a camping trip or a nature exploration exercise. The presence of the scouts adds a sense of adventure and youthful energy to the image. Two distinguished gentlemen, Lord Baden-Powell and Baron Robert von Ehrenfels, are also featured in the painting. Lord Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scout Movement, is depicted seated on a bench, deep in thought, while Baron von Ehrenfels, a prominent Austrian-Hungarian aristocrat and explorer, stands nearby, observing the lake and the scouts with great interest. The artist, Mary Evans, masterfully captures the essence of the scene, using soft, muted colors and intricate brushstrokes to create a vivid and evocative image of Lake Victoria Nyanza in the 1930s. This painting is a beautiful testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Entebbe and the Scout Movement during that era.
