1851 Minton Majolica Charger with scene

Descripción

1851 Minton Majolica Charger with scene. Extremely rare 14 1/8" large Minton<br>Majolica Charger with Minton's 1851 date mark, I could find no other markings.<br>No chips, cracks, or restorations. Small glaze flakes one on one of the dogs<br>noses and another bottom right close to the plate stand shown in the pics. No<br>other issues.<br>While this may be an unrecorded charger, this exact border actually everything<br>outside of the interior game scene can be found on other Minton Majolica<br>chargers including the one with a bust of Henri IV and Maria de Medici in the<br>interior.<br><br>This would be one of the Earlier pieces of Minton majolica which was created by<br>Joseph Leon Francois Arnoux who was appointed Art Director at Minton in 1848.<br>His primary task was to introduce and promote new products. At the time there<br>was great interest in classical design and bright color. Arnoux decided to<br>reintroduce the work of Bernard Palissy, whose naturalistic, bright colored<br>"maiolica" wares had been popular in the 16th century. However, Arnoux used a<br>thicker body to make pieces more sturdy. This body was given a coating of opaque<br>white glaze which provided a surface for over painting in brightly colored<br>opaque glazes. Later, transparent glazes were used over relief molding. This new<br>Minton majolica was promoted, in London, at the Great Exhibition of 1851.
