Excerpt from A History and Description of Italian MajolicaI consider myself fortunate in being able to include'in this series of histories of the great schools of pottery a volume on Italian Majolica from the pen of my distinguished friend M. L. Solon. The subject is worthy of the noblest treat ment, for, in its sphere, the decorated pottery of the Italian Renaissance is as supreme as the contemporary archi tecture, painting, and sculpture, and no one who has any pretensions to a knowledge of pottery can fail to realise the eminent qualifications Mr. Solon possesses for such a task.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
