| Abstract: | Dan l-artiklu jiffoka fuq l-iżviluppi u l-inizjattivi li saru wara l-1950 fil-festa titulari ta’ Santa Liena f’Birkirkara, partikolarment fuq il-ħidma biex jinbena bankun ġdid għall-istatwa. Wara kompetizzjoni pubblika, id-disinn intrebah minn Toussaint Busuttil u mbagħad ġie adattat minn artisti u skulturi magħrufa bħall-Francesco Sciortino, Pietru Pawl Muscat, Emanuele Buhagiar u Censu Apap. Il-bankun, b’xeni u simboli marbuta mal-patruna u l-passjoni ta’ Kristu, ġie inawgurat għall-festa tal-1954. |
