EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1923, showcases the vibrant festivities of Valletta, Malta during a grand carnival procession. The image features an impressive ship float adorned with intricate decorations, including colorful flowers and elaborate designs. The float is being pulled by a team of horses, adding to the festive atmosphere. Among the crowd, two figures stand out. On the left, a British sailor in full uniform salutes the passing float, a testament to the strong British influence in Malta at the time. His presence also underscores the country's rich maritime history. On the right, a group of Knights of Malta, dressed in their distinctive costumes, gracefully ride on the float. The Knights of Malta, also known as the Order of St. John, have a long and storied history in Malta, dating back to the 16th century. They are renowned for their humanitarian work and chivalric values. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique blend of cultures, traditions, and history that makes Valletta and Malta such a captivating destination. The 1920s, or the 'Roaring Twenties,' were a time of great change and excitement, and this photograph beautifully encapsulates the spirit of the era in Malta.
