EDITORS COMMENTS
The photograph captures a historic moment in time - the Farewell to the Duke of Cornwall at Valetta, accompanied by an awe-inspiring Flight of One Thousand Rockets in the Grand Harbour. Taken by an English Photographer in the 20th century, this print showcases a private collection that holds immense historical significance. The image depicts a grand spectacle as rockets soar into the night sky, illuminating the darkness with their brilliant trails of light. The occasion marks a royal visit to Malta, where dignitaries bid farewell to the Duke of Cornwall amidst a breathtaking display of fireworks. The composition beautifully captures both the excitement and melancholy surrounding such farewells. The rockets symbolize not only celebration but also serve as poignant reminders that all good things must come to an end. The Duke's departure from Valetta is immortalized through this striking visual representation. This photograph offers us a glimpse into European history and highlights Malta's importance as part of Europe's cultural tapestry. It serves as a testament to photography's ability to freeze moments in time and evoke emotions long after they have passed. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back over a century ago when grand displays like these were reserved for special occasions and captured hearts with their sheer magnificence.
