EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 20th century and immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of Malta's Custom House - The Quay. This photograph, taken circa 1900s, captures the bustling harbour scene at its peak activity. The historic Custom House stands proudly on the quay, its imposing structure a testament to the island nation's rich maritime heritage.
In the foreground, rowing boats and ferryboats dot the calm waters of Grand Harbour, while steamships and ferries chug along their routes. The Maltese flag flies high above the quayside buildings, adding a pop of colour to this already vibrant scene. In the distance, Valletta's skyline rises majestically from behind a haze of sea mist.
This stunning print offers a glimpse into Malta's past as an important Mediterranean port city. During this era, trade and commerce thrived through its strategic location between Europe and North Africa. Today, visitors can still experience this rich history by strolling along these same quaysides or exploring Valletta's ancient streets.
This beautiful photograph is not only a nostalgic reminder of times gone by but also an ode to Malta's enduring beauty and resilience.
