Catalogue of Mexican maiolica belonging to Mrs. Robert W. De Forest, exhibited by the Hispanic Society of America, February 18 to March 19, 1911
A 1911 exhibition catalogue published in New York by the Hispanic Society of America, listing Mexican maiolica owned by Mrs. Robert W. De Forest and shown in February and March of that year. The plates are black-and-white photographs of tin-glazed earthenware vessels, with the object photographed on its side in several cases. For a designer, they offer a record of early Mexican ceramic decoration, with dense scrolls, floral sprigs, and figural panels that can serve as pattern and motif sources.
