This beautifully sculptured corbel is one of three that support the Maltese balcony of a lovely old house in Sliema. Unfortunately, old houses like this one, even though they are very well kept are very often sold to speculators whose only interest is how much money they are to make from the site. If the authorities give in to pressure they are pulled down and replaced by modern apartment buildings.
We are back home after a lovely long week-end in Gozo with my sister, eldest brother and their spouses. I took many shots of which I hope I will post a few shots when I manage to sort them out.
