Book Synopsis A History and Description of English Porcelain (Classic Reprint) by : William Burton
Download or read book A History and Description of English Porcelain (Classic Reprint) written by William Burton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History and Description of English Porcelain For many years there has been real need of a work on English Porcelain which should occupy the gap between the elaborate monographs of single factories by Binns, Haslem, and Owen, and the admirable but brief general sketch by Professor A. H. Church. The present volume is an attempt to remove this deficiency by giving, on a sufficiently extended scale and with adequate illustration, a connected and comprehensive account of the origin and progress of porcelain making in England. Though the mere fact that the author is a practical potter cannot in itself prove sufficient qualification for such a task, the experience necessarily gained in the daily routine of a factory must be of value in attempting to appraise the work of the potters of past generations. For the first time, at all events, the historical and artistic development of English. Porcelain is interpreted by the light of technical and scientific knowledge gained in the industry itself; the fruits of years of study of museum collections and documentary and traditional information ripened by still more years of experience in actual manufacture. Having no prejudices in favour of any particular individual or factory it is only natural that my views should not always coincide with those of writers whose work has been conceived in a vein of personal eulogy, which puts impartial criticism out of the question.

This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A General History of Porcelain, Vol. 2 A little porcelain factory was established here in a factory where faience had been previously made, about 1777 - 78, by two potters, father and son, named Vermonet, who are said to have had the authorization or the patronage of the Due d'orleans to sell their wares in the region of Melun. The privilege is believed to have been granted for a period of fifteen years, and this appears to have been about the duration of the enterprise. The porcelain is of good white paste, and the pieces are well made and finished with a good glaze. The pieces attributed to the factory comprise table ware, tea and coffee services, vases and ower-pots, usually decorated with bouquets of owers painted in a naturalistic style, and finished with neat and precise gilding in good solid gold.

Download or read book Porcelain Its Nature Art and Manufacture (Classic Reprint) written by William Burton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Porcelain Its Nature Art and Manufacture The interest of Porcelain is perennial, and though book succeeds book, the subject remains unexhausted. The aim of this little book is to supply the collector and student of porcelain, as well as the general reader, with a clear and connected account of the various kinds of porcelain made in Asia and Europe. It has taken me more years than I like to count to arrive at the ideas set down in the following pages, and I hope that, as a result of my labours in sifting, weighing, selecting, and arranging, the knowledge gained from so many diverse sources, others may be saved a great deal of unnecessary trouble. This is in no sense a technical treatise, yet it is based on a practical experience in many branches of the Potter's Art, which has, I trust, enabled me to exhibit certain aspects of the subject in a way that will be new to the bulk of my readers. Throughout the work I have been careful to explain how the artistic qualities of the various porcelains have been influenced by the nature of the materials and processes used in different countries; the information being of such a character as will enable a collector to find the scientific explanation of the differences which an artist feels. Many difficulties have to be faced in a work necessarily so compressed as this. In the first place, it is impossible to keep the treatment accurately in scale. Naturally, perhaps, in an English book the records of the English factories occupy more space than the artistic merit of their productions would warrant; while German porcelain makes so little appeal to our English tastes, that a German might, not unreasonably, complain that the factories of his country had received less attention than they deserve. Others may think that Japanese porcelain has been somewhat slighted, but I have honestly tried to give a picture that should represent as truly as possible, within the prescribed limits, the development of every important kind of porcelain known. It is, perhaps, necessary to say a word in explanation of the attention given to the Letters of Pere d'Entrecolles.
