Theatre Stop, 1930s
Dressed in their finest, a couple sits side by side on a vintage 1930s bus, en route to a night at the theatre. Through the windows, the view unfolds — Valletta rising across the water, golden in the fading light, as the bus winds through Tigné in Sliema.
Theatre Stop captures a quieter rhythm of life, when even a short journey was filled with poise and purpose. From the polished details of the couple’s attire to the hand-painted curves of the bus, this illustration is a tribute to a refined, romantic Malta — a place where style met everyday movement.
Part of Kartelluni’s Welcome on Board collection, this piece offers a window into an era when public transport carried more than passengers — it carried stories, rituals, and quiet anticipation.
