EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of everyday life in Malta in 1906, featuring a Maltese Grass Seller going about his daily business. Dressed in traditional attire, the seller is barefoot and sports a distinguished moustache as he carries two baskets filled with lush greenery on his shoulders. The vibrant greens of the grass contrast beautifully with the warm Mediterranean backdrop of Valetta. The image exudes a sense of simplicity and authenticity, showcasing the timeless charm of Maltese culture. The intricate wicker baskets add to the rustic feel of the scene, while the seller's stoic expression hints at years of experience in his trade. As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to an era where life moved at a slower pace and traditions were deeply rooted in everyday activities. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage that make Malta such a unique destination. This print by Grenville Collins is not just an image frozen in time; it is a window into another world – one where hard work and tradition intersect against the stunning backdrop of this beautiful Mediterranean island.
