| Abstract: | The article examines the 1961 expansion in the iconography of Maltese Good Friday processional statues. It highlights the historical addition of new statuary groups imported from Italy to Qormi and Żejtun, such as The Last Supper and Jesus Meets His Holy Mother on the Way to Calvary. The piece explores how these introductions broke decades of tradition and triggered a broader wave of iconographical additions across the Maltese Islands. |
