EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time as you gaze upon this stone gateway, a relic of Malta's rich medieval history. Dating back to the 14th or 15th century, this intricately carved entrance once guarded the city walls of Valletta, the historic capital of Malta. The gateway's distinctive design features fleur-de-lis devices, a symbol of the French monarchy that ruled Malta during this period. The fleur-de-lis, meaning 'flower of the lily,' is a decorative motif that represents purity, light, and life. The gateway's weathered stone surface bears the marks of time, telling the story of the countless travelers who have passed through its arches. The intricate carvings on the gateway's archway and columns showcase the exceptional craftsmanship of the artisans who created it. The delicate fleur-de-lis devices atop the gateway's pinnacles add a touch of elegance and grace, making this gateway a true masterpiece of medieval architecture. This photograph, taken in the early 1910s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when knights, crusaders, and merchants roamed the streets of Valletta. The gateway stands as a testament to the island's storied past, a reminder of the many civilizations that have shaped its history. Today, it remains a popular tourist destination, drawing visitors from around the world who seek to explore the wonders of Malta's medieval past.
