Spanish Maiolica: In The Collection Of The Hispanic Society Of America is a book written by Edwin Atlee Barber and published in 1915. The book is a comprehensive study of Spanish maiolica, a type of glazed earthenware pottery that was produced in Spain during the 16th and 17th centuries. The book focuses on the collection of Spanish maiolica held by the Hispanic Society of America, which was founded in 1904 to promote the study and appreciation of Spanish culture. The book begins with an introduction to the history of Spanish maiolica, including its origins in Italy and its spread to Spain. It then provides a detailed analysis of the various types of Spanish maiolica, including plates, bowls, jars, and tiles. Each type of maiolica is described in detail, with information on its design, decoration, and production techniques. The book also includes a section on the marks and signatures found on Spanish maiolica, which can provide valuable information about the artist or workshop that produced the piece. The final section of the book features photographs of the Hispanic Society of America's collection of Spanish maiolica, along with detailed descriptions of each piece. Overall, Spanish Maiolica: In The Collection Of The Hispanic Society Of America is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and art of Spanish maiolica, as well as for collectors and curators of decorative arts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
