Download or read book Godden's Guide to European Porcelain written by Geoffrey A. Godden and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book from Britain's leading expert on ceramics breaks fresh ground. It is the first thorough exploration of the mass of decorative porcelain from Europe imported into Britain and the United States during the nineteenth century. There are many good books on continental porcelain, but almost without exception they deal with expensive eighteenth-century porcelains from the leading factories - rare pieces that most collectors cannot afford or even expect to see outside a museum. This book, by contrast, illustrates and discusses the more modest wares that so many people already own or collect, and fills in many of the yawning gaps that abound in ceramic literature. Chapters are devoted to the originals and the many copies of the well-known Meissen (or Dresden) porcelains, and to the reproductions of the valuable Sevres and Vienna wares. Other chapters deal with the main types of popular and available continental porcelains, Paris porcelains, and others that are so decorative and collectible. Full details, working periods, and the main marks are given for all the larger and more important European factories, together with photographs of a comprehensive range of examples. The book will be invaluable for all collectors, dealers, and auctioneers concerned with European porcelain in all its variety, and for anyone owning or having an interest in decorative china. It brings clarity to a vast and largely unexplored range of porcelain, examples of which are to be found in houses throughout the world.

Book Synopsis European Porcelain in The Metropolitan Museum of Art by : Jeffrey Munger
Download or read book European Porcelain in The Metropolitan Museum of Art written by Jeffrey Munger and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2018-05-09 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porcelain imported from China was the most highly coveted new medium in sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century Europe. Its pure white color, translucency, and durability, as well as the delicacy of decoration, were impossible to achieve in European earthenware and stoneware. In response, European ceramic factories set out to discover the process of producing porcelain in the Chinese manner, with significant artistic, technical, and commercial ramifications for Britain and the Continent. Indeed, not only artisans, but kings, noble patrons, and entrepreneurs all joined in the quest, hoping to gain both prestige and profit from the enterprises they established. This beautifully illustrated volume showcases ninety works that span the late sixteenth to the mid-nineteenth century and reflect the major currents of European porcelain production. Each work is illustrated with glorious new photography, accompanied by analysis and interpretation by one of the leading experts in European decorative arts. Among the wide range of porcelains selected are rare blue-and-white wares and figures from Italy, superb examples from the Meissen factory in Germany and the Sèvres factory in France, and ceramics produced by leading British eighteenth-century artisans. Taken together, they reveal why the Metropolitan Museum’s holdings in this field are among the finest in the world. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Verdana}
