1515 1525 Dish Earthenware Emilia Romagna Faenza Tin Glazed Amata Turnus

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable dish adorned with the enchanting figures of Amata and Turnus. Created by an unknown artist in Faenza, Italy around 1515-1525, this tin-glazed earthenware piece is a true masterpiece of European craftsmanship. The dish measures approximately 5.4cm in height and has a diameter of 24.61cm, making it a substantial work of art that commands attention. Its intricate design and delicate brushwork transport us to the mythical world depicted on its surface. Amata and Turnus, two prominent characters from ancient Roman mythology, are elegantly portrayed on this exquisite dish. Their graceful poses and expressive faces capture their emotions perfectly - Amata's sorrowful gaze contrasting with Turnus' determined stance. Faenza, located in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, was renowned for its exceptional ceramics during the Renaissance period. This dish exemplifies the mastery achieved by local artisans at that time. The use of tin glaze gives this earthenware piece a lustrous sheen while enhancing the vibrant colors used to depict Amata and Turnus against a backdrop reminiscent of Italian landscapes. As we admire this stunning print from Liszt Collection, we can't help but be transported back in time to an era where artistry flourished and storytelling came alive through every brushstroke. It serves as a testament to human creativity throughout history and reminds us of our timeless fascination with mythological tales.
