Dr Stephen C. Spiteri, a resident academic at the International Institute for Baroque Studies, discusses D’Aleccio’s depictions of fortifications and examines whether these are a faithful representation or a product of artistic imagination. Dr Bernard Micallef presents a paper on ‘Giovan Francesco Buonamico – A Flâneur in Baroque Style’ whilst Professor Carmen Depasquale’s study is titled ‘Anciens Usages des Maltais d’après un Guide Turistique de Malte du XVIIIe Siècle.’
