| Abstract: | Emvin Cremona's pre-eminence in the Maltese 20th century artistic firmament lies in the fact that he was one of the first Maltese artists to come to terms with a fully-fledged modern idiom. Although his popularity stemmed from his ecclesiastical and philatelic works, it is in his private creations that he attained his most important achievements. In these private works, the artist could express himself unshackled by outside constraints and parameters. [Excerpt] |
