Giorgio Levi – Anatomia di uno stile: le ceramiche a fasce colorate di San Giovanni alla Vena

6 Maggio 2021

The essay presents a detailed stylistic analysis of the colored stripes ceramics by Bini & Carmignani and Ezio Nesti, concluding that the best works of these two factories, certainly not comparable with the creations of Cagli and Baldelli, still have a quality comparable to that of other Rometti’s serial artifacts. This explains both the past attribution errors and the great commercial success of the followers, who were targeting a less than elite market. The essay also identifies in some works by Gio Ponti the iconographic source to which the followers were widely inspired.
