EDITORS COMMENTS
This view, captured by the skilled hand of Louis Ducros in 1778, presents an unfinished perspective of Citta Nuova at Ras il-Qala bay on the enchanting island of Gozo, Malta. The drawing is taken from Ducros' album, "Voyage to Italy, Sicily and Malta," and was created using chalk on paper. The artist's masterful use of color and shading brings the panoramic scene to life, with the distant, walled city of Citta Nuova nestled amidst the rolling hills and rugged coastline. The incomplete state of the city walls and town, still under construction during Ducros' visit, adds an intriguing layer of history to the image. The vast expanse of water in the foreground, reflecting the clear blue sky and the white, fortified town, further emphasizes the sense of distance and isolation. This romantic, eighteenth-century drawing invites the viewer to imagine the journey of exploration and discovery that led Ducros to this breathtaking location. The image is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Europe and the enduring allure of the Maltese islands.
