This catalogue deals with the earliest history of the art of tin-glazed earthenware in Europe. It stretches from the Spanish pottery of the Late Middle Ages through the breakthrough of the technique in Italian maiolica of the Renaissance and moves on to follow the spread of this type of ceramics further north through the Baroque and early Roccoco eras. The catalogue traces and describes the development of shapes and motifs in tin-glazed earthenware and its transition from a Near Eastern tradition to a genuinely European craft, which absorbed influences from contemporary visual arts and had points of contact with other applied arts. Later it became the material in which impulses from the Far East gradually made inroads. The history of tin-glazed earthenware as presented in this catalogue is thus the story of intense cutural exchange between North and South in Europe, which also provides an account of how powerful artistic impulses from the Near and Far East were assumed and transformed in European ceramics.
