EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1910s, showcases the stunning Church of the Assumption of Our Lady, or Mosta Dome, in the heart of Malta. Located in the town of Mosta, this Roman Catholic church is a marvel of architectural beauty and historical significance. The fourth largest unsupported dome in the world, it is a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. The Mosta Dome, also known as Rotunda of St Marija Assunta, is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. Its impressive dome, adorned with intricate details and ornate columns, rises majestically against the clear blue Maltese sky. The church's front facade is equally breathtaking, with a grand colonnade that invites visitors to explore its sacred halls. Malta, an overseas British territory in the Mediterranean Sea, was a popular destination for travelers during the early 20th century. This photograph captures a moment in time when the island was still under British rule, with tour buses parked outside the church, ready to transport visitors to discover the wonders of Malta. The Mosta Dome is not just a religious site but also a symbol of Maltese pride and heritage. Its enduring beauty continues to attract visitors from around the world, who come to marvel at its architectural grandeur and historical significance. This photograph is a glimpse into the past, offering a window into a time when Malta's rich cultural heritage was just beginning to be discovered by the wider world.
