EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-finished chromolithograph showcases a stunning collection of Etruscan and Campanian pottery in soft paste without glaze. The image transports us back to ancient Italy, where these exquisite pieces were meticulously crafted over 2,500 years ago. Etruscan and Campanian pottery, renowned for its distinctive style and elegance, is characterized by its unglazed soft paste. The absence of glaze allowed the natural clay to take center stage, revealing its unique texture and earthy tones. The pottery depicted in this print includes various forms such as urns, jugs, pots, and candlelabra. Each piece is handcrafted, showcasing the artisan's skill and dedication to their craft. The Etruscans, an ancient civilization that predates the Romans, were known for their innovative pottery techniques. Their influence extended beyond Italy, shaping the artistic styles of neighboring cultures. The Campanians, located in the Campania region of southern Italy, also contributed significantly to the development of Italian pottery. Their pieces, often decorated with intricate geometric patterns and figurative designs, are highly sought after by collectors and scholars. This chromolithograph, taken from Ris Paquots' "General History of Ancient French and Foreign Glazed Pottery," is a testament to the enduring allure of these ancient creations. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the pottery to life, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship that went into each piece. The hand-finished nature of the print adds an authentic touch, making it a valuable addition to any collection of ancient art or history.
