Summary

From its discovery in the mid-18th century onwards, the black-glazed pottery of ancient Greece set several trends in the history of taste in Europe. This was also especially true in the Victorian era, which took a systematic interest in copying not only shapes and décors of the pots but also the ancient technique itself. This conference volume aims at enlightening our study of this new phase, which has received little attention so far. In ten chapters, it provides deep insights into the various approaches of several factories and players in England, France, Germany and Italy, painting a lively picture of the reception of the Greek vase in 19th-century crafts and the arts. With contributions byNorbert Franken | Bénédicte Garnier | Katharina Hefele | Anja Klöckner | Kilian Kohn | Caterina Maderna | Janett Morgan | Paolo Persano | Nancy H. Ramage | Corinna Reinhardt.
