Abstract: Il-Ħaġar Museum is delighted to present Esprit Barthet, one of Malta’s most iconic painters. Together with a few outstanding confreres of mid-20th-century Malta, Barthet embodies our island nation’s revived identity and growing confidence. He helped to unfurl a new culture of critique and an openness to new image and form, that gradually dispelled stagnant myths and settled mediocrities to usher into our islands an exciting swell of artistic and other innovations that went on to bring to the surface the underlying undercurrents that would form our newly independent nation. [excerpt from the Foreword, authored by Mr. Joseph Farrugia]
