This book is about the life and work for the Scottish painter Peter Quinn, with particular regard to his paintings of Malta. Peter is now one of the most admired painters of the Maltese scene, and his reputation continues to grow.'
- Peter Apap Bologna, editor
'This young man is now, as I believe I referred to him last time, is now so to speak, in top gear. He is producing his best work. He has every reason to like the Malta scene and this, his state of mind, we know was stimulated not only by the scenery, but also by his Maltese wife Josiette. Marriage does not always suit artists well, but when it works, when it inspires, when there is talent to develop, what wonders do we see!'
- Nicholas de Piro, introduction
includes: written memoir and discussions of his inspiration and processes by Royal Watercolour Society Artist Peter Quinn, early photos and drawings of Malta, sketches and paintings of fishing boats, markets, streets, buildings and more
