EDITORS COMMENTS
Life in Fort Delimara, Malta (engraving) captures the vibrant essence of a bustling military outpost in 19th century Europe. This print, created by the English School, offers a glimpse into the daily activities and camaraderie within this fortified fortress. The scene unfolds with officers and soldiers engaged in various tasks and conversations. A drawbridge stands tall as news is shared among comrades, while others assist headquarters operations. The air is filled with lively chatter as men gather around a charcoal-fueled gundrill or mess cart for lunch. Amidst the arrival of mails and members from afar, there is an atmosphere of learning and preparation for special appointments. Infantry garrison personnel can be seen engaging in cooking duties on a Maltese stove, discussing tactics or simply enjoying each other's company. The fortifications themselves stand proud against the backdrop of Malta's scenic beauty. Big guns are hauled into position while craftsmen diligently work on maintaining their functionality. The governor's inspection adds to the excitement as officers' servants attend to their duties with utmost precision. This engraving beautifully encapsulates both the pleasure and duty that encompassed life within Fort Delimara during this era. It serves as a testament to European craftsmanship and gastronomy that thrived within these walls. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the rich tapestry of life within this fortified haven.
