Das rheinische Steinzeug
Das rheinische Steinzeug is a 1908 study of Rhenish stoneware by Otto von Falke, published in Berlin-Schöneberg by Meisenbach Riffarth for scholars and collectors of pottery. The pictures are grey halftone photographs of jugs, ewers and a cylindrical vessel, with moulded relief bands of figures, foliage, masks and heraldic medallions. A designer could take from them the rhythm of raised ornament on rounded forms, with bands of figures set between plain and fluted zones.
