EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Malta's Grand Harbour, showcasing the iconic Upper Barracca. Taken by a European photographer in the 19th century, this historic image is now part of a private collection. The scene depicts a picturesque view of Grand Harbour with its charming harbour wall and moorings. The worn-down buildings along the waterfront add an air of history to the composition, transporting viewers back to another era. This particular photograph was used as an illustration for Photographic Views of Malta, published by W Watson in Valetta around 1895. The monochromatic tones bring out the intricate details and textures within the image, emphasizing its historical significance. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the scene, enhancing its scenic allure. Malta's rich history comes alive through this photograph, reminding us of its importance as a strategic port throughout centuries past. As part of Europe's heritage, it serves as a testament to both local and European history. With its timeless charm and evocative ambiance, this print offers viewers a glimpse into Malta's past while also celebrating photography as an art form.
