EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back in time to the bustling maritime city of Valletta. Calvert Jones, a renowned artist of the 19th century, skillfully captures the essence of this Mediterranean gem with his salted paper print from a paper negative. In this panoramic view, we are transported to an era when trade and transportation thrived on these waters. The grand harbor comes alive with boats gracefully gliding through its calm surface. The fortifications surrounding the port stand tall as guardians of this historic city. The architectural beauty of Valletta shines through in every detail captured by Jones' lens. From elegant houses lining the waterfront to majestic buildings dotting the landscape, each structure tells a story of centuries-old heritage. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can almost feel the salty breeze coming off the Mediterranean Sea and hear echoes of bustling activity from long ago. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernization and progress, there is immense value in preserving our cultural roots. This remarkable piece now finds its home at The Metropolitan Museum of Art where it continues to inspire visitors with its timeless charm. Through Calvert Jones' lens, we are transported back in time to witness the vibrant history and rich traditions that have shaped Valletta into what it is today.
