This book examines the creative development of ceramic transferwares, evaluating the nature and scope of their international impact.
In the early nineteenth century, printed tablewares formed part of the new media of the age. Printed tablewares played a significant role in the democratization of artistic imagery as well as the development of cultural and national identities.
Eventually, as newer media forms began to supersede the vitrified print, meaning became diluted, so that the genre eventually reached obsolescence and kitsch.
