EDITORS COMMENTS
This drawing by Louis Ducros, titled 'Monument of Phoenicians or Carthaginians on the Island of Gozo, 1778,' is an exquisite representation of the rich historical and archaeological heritage of Malta. The image is taken from Ducros' album 'Voyage to Italy, Sicily and Malta,' which documents his travels through Europe during the late 18th century. The drawing depicts the ruins of an ancient monument located on the island of Gozo, a part of Malta in the Mediterranean Sea. The monument, shrouded in mystery and intrigue, is believed to be of Phoenician or Carthaginian origin, reflecting the island's ancient history. The chalk on paper drawing captures the monument's rugged beauty, with its weathered stones and intricate carvings, standing proud against a backdrop of vibrant colors and lush greenery. The monument, a tourist attraction even during Ducros' time, is a testament to the enduring allure of the past. The drawing is a snapshot of a bygone era, transporting us back in time and offering a glimpse into the ancient civilizations that once thrived in this part of the world. The intricate details and the use of color and shading in the drawing bring the monument to life, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical and archaeological art. Louis Ducros, a Swiss artist, was known for his meticulous drawings and watercolors, which captured the essence of the places he visited. This drawing, in particular, showcases his skill and his appreciation for the historical and archaeological sites he encountered during his travels. Today, it serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our heritage and the role that art plays in documenting and celebrating the past.
