Malta Through The Lens – Uno Karlsson

Malta Through The Lens – Uno Karlsson

Step back in time to 1971 with Uno Karlsson. His camera moves intimately through historic streets, village squares, and bustling harbours, recording both monumental architecture and the raw rhythms of everyday life. From street hawkers and rural men in traditional qorq to vibrant local vignettes now lost to time, these photographs offer a rare Scandinavian perspective on a changing social landscape. As Prof. Mark-Anthony Falzon notes in his Foreword, the collection beautifully summons “flashes of nostalgia: for the fruit vendors selling individually wrapped Jaffa oranges, the rural men in their uniform of rolled-up trousers and leather sandals (qorq), the village streets teeming with women in aprons.”
