Valletta, Malta, August 2019. A Sculpture Depicting Poor Children In The Upper Gardens. Editorial Image

Of particular interest is the bronze sculpture group known as “Les Gavroches” by the early 20th century Maltese sculptor Antonio Sciortino. The sculpture group, depicting three hurrying boys, recalls the incredible difficulties that the Maltese had to face at the beginning of the 20th century, they say that the artist created the sculpture under the influence of Victor Hugo’s novel “Les Miserables”, and Gavrosh is the character of the novel.
