Malta outdoor statues

Every weekend in Malta, there are 4 to 6 different celebrations of parish saints, culminating with a procession with the main titular statue through the streets of the town or village. Many other decorations are set up along the streets, including statues of angels, some of which are visible here.

They are usually made of paper mache, and even though they are elaborately made, they are not of the highest quality as the titular statue, which is kept in the church, and carried out for 4 hours on Sunday evening. Nonetheless, they are well-crafted statues and beautifully done.
