EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grand entrance to Valletta's Grand Harbour as seen from The Upper Barrakka Gardens (Il-Barrakka ta' Fuq) in 1923. The historic Maltese city of Valletta, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is nestled on a peninsula in the Mediterranean Sea and has served as a strategic military stronghold for centuries. In this image, the British Royal Navy's fleet is anchored in the harbor, paying tribute to the British rule over Malta, which began in 1814 and lasted until 1964. The saluting battery, visible in the foreground, is a historic military installation that dates back to the 16th century. The battery was used to salute incoming and outgoing royal and distinguished naval vessels, a tradition that continued well into the 20th century. The grandeur of the harbor entrance is further accentuated by the tall ships of the British fleet, their sails billowing in the breeze, and the imposing fortifications that line the harbor's edge. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1920s, an era of British colonial rule and naval dominance in the Mediterranean. The image is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Valletta and its Grand Harbour, which continues to attract visitors from around the world.
