"Habit of a Morisco Slave in 1568" is an historical hand-colored engraving in the collection A Collection of the Dresses of Different Nations, Antient and Modern, consisting of four volumes published by Thomas Jefferys from 1757 to 1772.The engraving illustrates the particular costume ("habit") of a Morisco slave, a Moorish Muslim converted to Catholicism against his will, in the very special year of 1568, during which the famous Rebellion of the Alpujarras occurred as a result of King Philip II's Pragmatica, forbidding Morisco habits and language.
