Synopsis
The world can never get enough of wonderful Italy and all things Italian. The famed ceramics of Deruta are certainly no exception. The first comprehensive book to celebrate the design and evolution of this extraordinary art form, Deruta is exquisitely illustrated with over 150 colorful photographs of coveted "majolica." The author and photographers, working with Melanie Doherty, who was a designer in Italy for several years, dramatically portray the splendors of this living tradition. We see the finest examples of Deruta tableware and tilework as well as garden decorations, fa'ades, altars, and architectural details. While some pieces are highly collectible, others are inexpensive and perfect for everyday use. Deruta also includes profiles of the artisans' studios and a gallery of their work, as well as evocative black-and-white photos of the hill town they call home. With a history of the craft an artistic heritage more than six centuries old this singular volume is a must have for collectors and for anyone inspired by Deruta ceramics, decorative art pieces that evoke the spirit of the Italian countryside., The world can never get enough of wonderful Italy and all things Italian.

Railroad book by OS Nock was well packaged and shipped within acceptable timeframe. The listing title did not match the picture, contacted Seller to verify what is being sold. They replied to confirm with the ISBN number in the listing. ISBN was for Railways of the USA, and that matched the picture. That was also what was delivered and what I was seeking. Picture showed Dust Jacket which was not included, but the text said it might not be. Recommend Seller.

  • A fascinating book about beautiful pottery

    If you have been to Deruta, you know the town is filled with artisans who are products of generations of artists. The book is fascinating, and is a welcomed addition to my library of Italian beauty.
