Book excerpt: "This book is a full catalogue of the Ashmolean's Italian pottery and also includes tin-glazed pottery from other countries, including Spain, France, the Low Countries, England, and Mexico. It presents a panorama of the achievement of Italian potters and pottery painters, who transformed a technology they learnt from the Islamic world into a vivid form o Renaissance art, which was then diffused across Europe and beyond, creating individual national ceramic traditions."--Publisher's description.
