| Abstract: | Mahoney attempts to provide architect Andrea Vassallo the recognition that he deserved due to the obscure nature that he was succumbed to. His governmental employment restrained his attempts at fulfilling his architectural dreams although he ultimately, if late in his life, managed to succeed. Whilst working for the government, he was forbidden from pursuing personal works yet he sidestepped this rule with the help of his son, Edwin, who promoted them for him. At the end of the document are attached various pictures of Vassallo's work. |
