Join Heritage Malta in commemorating the 275th anniversary of the failed slaves' conspiracy revolt of 1749 with the exhibition 'Betrayal and Vengeance: The Slaves' Conspiracy of 1749 in 19 Historical Drawings'. The exhibition analyses one of the most intriguing and tumultuous periods in Maltese History, through more than 58 new sgeets exchanged between the Inquisitor and Apostolic Delegate Paolo Passionei and the Vatican between 1748 and 1751.
It features a collection of 19 contemporary drawings, each vividly depicting the intense and often brutal aftermath of he conspiracy. These rare illustrations, recently restored by Heritage Malta, serve as the centrepiece of a narrative that delves deep into the political, social, and cultural dynamics of 18th-century Malta.
