Description

Snorkelling in Malta captures an extraordinary moment where ancient Maltese fishing culture meets the dawn of leisure travel. Three figures float beneath golden woven basket fish traps, the traditional nasse that have guided catches in these waters for centuries. Slim Aarons discovered this perfect confluence in 1959, when Malta's flawless emerald waters still held authentic encounters with maritime traditions. Your discerning patrons will immediately recognize this intersection of timeless craft with modern pleasure. The cone-shaped wicker structures suspended overhead create a natural canopy above the vibrant yellow and black swimsuits.

This remarkable scene captures the essence of your space as a portal to undiscovered Malta, where viewers experience the romance of genuine island culture. Snorkelling in Malta showcases the green wooden boat carrying onlookers while swimmers glide beneath the handwoven fishing baskets. Your living room becomes a window to that pivotal moment when accomplished travelers sought real cultural experiences rather than tourist facades. Every viewing reveals new details like the brilliant sunlight dancing across the water, the rope supports holding ancient baskets, the clarity that makes every underwater movement visible.

More than capturing bathers, Slim Aarons revealed the poetry of a vanishing world where tradition and leisure coexisted perfectly. The photograph preserves Malta before mass tourism, when the nasse still dotted coastal waters. The suspended baskets preserve the story of North African reeds woven into oval shapes for catching bogue. Your home gains the prestige of owning this rare moment when cultures met in harmony.

Available in photo lustre or matte finish, professionally framed in black, white, or natural wood. These crystal waters and golden fish traps bring timeless island heritage directly into your refined space. Transform your environment with this extraordinary moment of cultural discovery, making every day remarkable today.

Paper & Frame Info

Q: Prints are listed in cm and inches - what will be the size of my print?
We produce prints in both metric (cm) and imperial (inches) sizes. The sizing system used depends on the product type and your delivery location. In most cases, there's only a few millimetres difference between the metric and imperial conversions.

Q: How does the border affect the size of the print?
The total size of the print will always match the size you select. If you choose to add a border, it's included within that size and slightly reduces the image area.

Q: What are the dimensions if I order a framed print?
The size you select refers to the internal dimensions of the frame (the print size including any border). The frame molding adds approximately an inch to each side, so the outer framed dimensions will be about 2 inches larger in both height and width.
