Summary: Raphael’s Ware or maiolica istoriato, these terms refer to the way in which narrative scenes derived from the paintings of Raphael were used to decorate the most precious pieces of Italian ceramics in the 16th century. Colourful and shiny plates, bowls and jugs became objects of luxury and artistic perfection. Originally the pride of the Italian nobility, istoriato maiolica was avidly collected throughout Europe in the 19th century. This exhibition will be the first, and a unique, occasion to see the priceless maiolica from the collections of the National Museum in Warsaw and other Polish museums.
