| Abstract: | Kull min jidħol fil-Kolleġġjata ta' San Ġorġ f'Ħal Qormi ma jistax ma jinnotax li l-koppla maestuża tagħha hija mżejna b'pittura stupenda tal-artist Malti Ġuże Briffa, esegwita fl-1938. Din turi lil dan il-qaddis martri, flimkien ma' San Pawl u Sant' Agata, iħarsu lill-Maltin waqt l-attakk tal-Mori fuq l-Mdina tal-1429. L-istess xena tidher f'waħda mill-apside tal-Bażilka ta' San Ġorġ fir-Rabat ta' Għawdex. Din tal-aħħar tpittret mill-artist Giambattista Conti ta' Ruma fl-1956. Xi ħadd hawn forsi jistaqsi għaliexf'dawn iż-żewġ knejjes iddedikati lil San Ġorġ tidher din l-istess xena. U x'għandu x' jaqsam San Ġorġ ma' din il-ġrajja importanti fl-istorja ta' Malta. |
