Consiglia Azzopardi’s work History and Mystery of Maltese Lace – Four Centries of Bizzilla is rooted in
the Maltese Islands but branches onto the global. All along Azzopardi captures the spirit of a nation in the
making: the historical, political, social and religious milieu conveyed through lacemaking. Through
painstaking research and moving firsthand experiences she immortalises the art of lacemaking for
posterity. A truly enriching epiphany.
Azzopardi ushers the readers into a completely new dimension where she intertwines the sacred and the
secular, the royal and the rustic. History and Mystery of Maltese Lace – Four Centries of Bizzilla is a blend
of history, technique and protagonists, promoters, designers, artists, merchants, clergy and customers.
Indeed a scholarly and entertaining text, gripping and relaxing, engaging and informative.
