Fontana Parish Church and rural life

Categories & Tags: People Work and Craftsmanship
This 1957 photograph, taken by Guido Stilon, captures a pastoral scene near the Fontana Parish Church in Gozo. The image is part of the Guido Stilon collection featured in the book Malta: Images of a Bygone Era, curated by photographic history researcher Dr Charles Paul Azzopardi. The scene highlights Savera tal-Mazgat tending to her goats amidst traditional stone walls and a rustic cart, embodying the rural lifestyle of the time. The majestic Fontana Parish Church rises in the background, providing a striking contrast to the simplicity of village life. This photo beautifully reflects Gozo's cultural and historical tapestry.
