EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant city of Valletta, Malta in the 1930s. The image showcases the stunning cityscape that was meticulously built after a failed Ottoman siege in 1565. Named after Jean Parisot de la Valette, the Grand Master of the Knights of St John of Malta, Valletta stands as a testament to its rich history and resilience. The colorized photograph beautifully captures the essence of this Mediterranean island's capital. The bustling harbor comes alive with boats gracefully gliding through its crystal-clear waters. The waterfront is lined with magnificent buildings that exude architectural brilliance from every angle. Transportation plays a vital role in this thriving city, as seen by an array of boats dotting the harbor. They serve as a reminder of Valletta's strategic location and its strong connection to water transport. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where tradition meets modernity. This print not only offers us a glimpse into Valletta's past but also serves as a visual representation of Malta's cultural heritage. With each detail carefully preserved by Unknown (the creator) and brought to life once again by The Print Collector, this print allows us to appreciate both the grandeur and charm that define Valletta even today.
