Atelier del Restauro

While I was on my assignment, documenting the floral arrangements for the Pope’s visit, I was asked I could also cover the mounting on the Papal altar of the important and venerable Icon of Our Lady of Damascus pertaining to the Greek Catholic Church, Valletta. The important and venerable icon of Our Lady of Damascus, venerated in the Greek Catholic Church of Our Lady of Damascus, in Valletta, was brought from Rhodes to Malta in 1530 by the Order of Knights Hospitaller of St John. The icon was conserved and restored between 2019-2021 by Atelier del Restauro ltd.

It is always a pleasure to document such memorable moments!
