EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the majestic entrance to Valletta's Grand Harbour in Malta, as seen from Fort Ricasoli in 1909. The historic fort, built by the Knights of St. John in the late 17th century, stands proudly on the eastern side of the harbour, its imposing walls and towers silhouetted against the clear blue sky. The entrance to the harbour is bustling with activity, with ships of various sizes and shapes anchored in the water, their sails billowing in the breeze. The quayside teems with people and carts, as goods are unloaded from the ships and transported to their destinations. The scene is one of industry and commerce, but also of history and tradition, with the ancient walls of Fort Ricasoli serving as a reminder of the rich past of this beautiful Mediterranean island. The photograph, taken in 1909, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, when Valletta was a major trading hub and the Maltese Islands were a strategic prize in the Mediterranean. Today, Fort Ricasoli and the Grand Harbour remain popular tourist destinations, attracting visitors from around the world who come to marvel at the history and beauty of this unique and fascinating place.
