Abstract: An artistic masterpiece by Maltese baroque artist Francesco Zahra (1710-1773) was brought back to its former glory thanks to a meticulous process of preservation and restoration. The restored painting, The Presentation of Jesus at the Temple, was unveiled on April 29, in time for the annual May celebrations commemorating the 279th birthday of the city of Qormi as Città Pinto.
