EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic Porta Reale Ditch in Malta, showcasing the Dockyard, Creek, and Cottonera Hospital. Taken by an anonymous European photographer in the 19th century, this image is part of a private collection. The scene depicts a picturesque view of a run-down area with historical significance. The Porta Reale Ditch was an important location during that time period and played a significant role in Malta's history. The dockyard seen in the photograph served as a hub for maritime activities, while the creek provided access to ships and boats. In contrast to these bustling areas, the Cottonera Hospital stands peacefully nearby. This print was originally used as an illustration for "Photographic Views of Malta" by W Watson in around 1895. It offers viewers a glimpse into early 19th-century life on the island. The monochromatic tones add to its nostalgic charm. With its scenic beauty and historical context, this image transports us back to another era. It reminds us of how far medicine has come since then while also highlighting the architectural heritage of Malta. This piece serves as both art and documentation of an important chapter in Maltese history.
