  1. 1949-00-00 — The painter Reginald Turvey returned to South Africa from England where he had become a Bahá'í through his association with the well-known painter, Mark Tobey. He was unaware of the existence of Agnes Carey who was in a nursing home in Durban and so he spent a lonely 13-year period of steadfastness in the Faith. For his patience, devotion and subsequent services to the African Bahá'ís, he was given the title of "The Father of the Bahá'ís of South Africa" by Shoghi Effendi when he was on pilgrimage in 1956. [Progress of the Bahá'í Faith in South Africa since 1911]

    In 1986, the year of his passing, George Ronald published a book titled Reginal Turvey - Life and Art:annal, letters and recollections. It was collected and edited why Lowell Johnson.

    A brief biography and some of his paintings can be found at Bahá'í Library Online and more of his paintings can be viewed at Strauss&co and at MutualArt.
