[15] There is ample documentary evidence to prove how largely the
lustred pottery of Spain was imported into Italy from the 12th
century onwards; and it is important to note in this connexion that
almost all the fine examples of Hispano-Moresque in our modern
collections have been obtained from the palaces of ancient Italian
families.
[16] Piccolpasso, _I tre libri dell' arte del Vasajo_, dated 1548. It
has been several times translated both into modern Italian and
French. The English reader will find an excellent abstract of this
interesting MS. in the volumes on _Majolica_ by Drury E. Fortnum.

rendus_ for December 1905, and W. Burton, _Society of Arts Journal_,
2846, vol. lv., 1907.

will be found in Hobson's "Medieval Pottery found in England,"
_Archaeological Journal_, vol. lix.
[23] Bottger at Meissen made a similar ware as his prelude to the
discovery of white porcelain, but this was after Dwight's death.
[24] For a discussion of the stages through which this was achieved
the reader is referred to special works, such as Prof. A.H. Church's
_English Earthenware_, and W. Burton's _English Earthenware and
Stoneware_.
[25] It is amusing or annoying to find in European museums the wares
of Wedgwood, Turner, Adams and one of the Leeds potteries, all lumped
together as "Wedgwood," and yet one can hardly wonder at it,
remembering how much has been written of Wedgwood and how little of
the other English potters of the 18th century.
