Istorie delle fabbriche di majoliche metaurensi e delle attinenti ad esse
An 1879 Italian study of majolica pottery made in the Metaurus valley, edited by Giuliano Vanzolini and published in Pesaro by A. Nobili, aimed at historians and collectors of Italian ceramics. Its two plates are pen-and-ink line drawings after painted decoration: one shows a domestic interior with figures inside an ornate scrolled roundel, the other a Madonna and child flanked by two mitred bishops beneath cherub heads, suggesting Renaissance devotional painting that designers could adapt for ceramic borders and framing.
