EDITORS COMMENTS
Malta - Valletta: A Traditional Dghajsa Boat at the Quay (circa 1908) This evocative photograph captures the timeless beauty of Valletta's waterfront, with a traditional Maltese dghajsa boat moored at the quay. The image, taken around 1908, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era when horse-drawn carriages and dghajsa boats were the primary means of transportation along the Mediterranean coast. Valletta, the fortified capital city of Malta, is nestled in a natural harbor and is renowned for its rich history and architectural grandeur. In this photograph, we see the city's stunning facade, with its grandiose buildings and imposing fortifications, reflecting off the calm waters of the harbor. The dghajsa, a traditional Maltese boat, is a symbol of the island's maritime heritage. These wooden boats have been in use for centuries, providing a vital link between the mainland and the islands that make up the Maltese archipelago. In this photograph, we see a boatman skillfully maneuvering the dghajsa to the quay, no doubt eager to help passengers embark or disembark. The quay, bustling with activity, is filled with people and animals, adding to the vibrant energy of the scene. The horse-drawn carriages, a common sight in Valletta during the early 1900s, can be seen waiting to transport passengers to their destinations. This photograph is a testament to the enduring charm of Valletta and the Maltese way of life, offering a glimpse into a bygone era that continues to captivate and inspire visitors to this day.
