This print captures a significant moment in history - the first photograph of Sultan Mohammed VI of Turkey and his son, Prince Mohammed Ertogroul, during their visit to Malta. Taken on 29 November 1922, this image showcases the arrival of the Sultan and his young heir at the Custom House in Valetta. The solemn expressions on their faces hint at the weight of responsibility they carried as leaders of a nation undergoing immense change. The Sultan's dignified presence is complemented by his son's youthful innocence, creating a striking contrast that symbolizes both tradition and hope for the future. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of timelessness to this portrait, allowing us to connect with these historical figures across generations.

This print is not just a visual artifact; it represents an invaluable record of our shared human experience.
