1999 - Art in Malta
          Descoveries & Recoveries

New insights into Malta's artistic treasures have been dug up in research by one of Malta's eminent art historians Giovanni Bonello in his publication 'Art in Malta'

The book contains 34 articles on subjects that delve into different branches of art, sculpture and architecture. The author offers a mixture of new material and information which he has already published. The articles vary from studies in the art work of the coins of Simon Provost, an attribution to Antonio Lazi for the magnificent wooden lectern of St John's Co- Cathedral, the last days of Mederico Blondel, Mattia Preti and many more.

Through Bonello's publication several lacunae have been filled thus contributing majorly to a clearer picture of Malta's multi-faceted history.

Giovanni Bonello is a Judge of the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg. He writes extensively on human rights, art, history and postal history topics.
