EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph titled "A Maltese Tragedy, the Rival Agents and How They Do Business in Malta" artist Phil May takes us on a journey through the bustling trade scene of 19th century Malta. The print showcases the eagerness and arrival of various agents from competing firms, all vying for their share of commercial success. The image is teeming with energy as boats crowd the harbor, ready to transport goods across Europe. Each firm strategically advertises its offerings, hoping to attract customers and secure profitable deals. Amidst this vibrant atmosphere, there is an air of both satisfaction and tragedy as rival agents fiercely compete for dominance in this cutthroat business world. May's attention to detail immerses viewers into the scene - from the intricate engravings on each boat to the animated expressions on people's faces. This artwork not only captures a moment in time but also serves as a window into European trade during that era. As we observe this Maltese tragedy unfold before our eyes, it becomes clear that commerce was at the heart of Malta's identity. The print reminds us of how transportation played a crucial role in facilitating trade between nations while highlighting the importance placed on free enterprise and competition within European business enterprises. This lithograph by Phil May offers both amusement and insight into an important aspect of Malta's history – its thriving commercial landscape driven by rival agents seeking success amidst fierce competition.
