The community received a warm welcome and enjoyed the support of distinguished members of the Order of St. John, who frequently sought the religious services of the Discalced Carmelites. This patronage also took the form of various artistic endeavors, including paintings by Mattia Preti and Lucas Garnier. The history of this complex is indeed rich, and the artworks that remain within its walls include invaluable masterpieces. This article will focus on two of these pieces that have recently been restored by Amy Sciberras Conservators. This restoration project represents the latest in a series that our firm has completed, as we persist in our efforts to contribute to the conservation and appreciation of Malta's cultural heritage. 2023-03-19T00:00:00Z Summer 'Treasures' from Patrimonju : part II /library/oar/handle/123456789/137112 Title: Summer 'Treasures' from Patrimonju : part II Abstract: In this article the author, making reference to the book 'Treasures of Malta', writes about the story of the British cartoonist and painter Henry Bateman, his works focusing on the beauty of Gozo.
