The first comprehensive study of the most important ceramic innovation of the 19th century
Colorful, wildly imaginative, and technically innovative, majolica was functional and aesthetic ceramic ware. Its subject matter reflects a range of 19th-century preoccupations, from botany and zoology to popular humor and the macabre. Majolica Mania examines the medium’s considerable impact, from wares used in domestic settings to monumental pieces at the World’s Fairs. Essays by international experts address the extensive output of the originators and manufacturers in England—including Minton, Wedgwood, and George Jones—and the migration of English craftsmen to the U.S. New research including information on important American makers in New York, Baltimore, and Philadelphia is also featured. Fully illustrated, the book is enlivened by new photography of pieces from major museums and private collections in the U.S. and Great Britain.
Sudpsuez Marmi Antichi
Edited by Gabriele Borghini
Marmi antichi is an essential reference work for restorers, art historians, and enthusiasts of classical materials. The book delves into the examination of raw stone and its processing, tracing a chronological arc from the Egyptians to the Romans. It continues by exploring medieval and modern practices of the "marmorari" (marble workers), including reuse, the Cosmati, and 17th-century specialized decorators. The volume concludes with a reasoned catalog of various marble types, providing valuable guidance for recognizing and assessing their aesthetic and structural characteristics.

Sudpsuez Painting in Stone: Architecture and the Poetics of Marble from Antiquity to the Enlightenment by Fabio Barry
Words by Fabio Barry
A sweeping history of premodern architecture told through the material of stone
Spanning almost five millennia, Painting in Stone tells a new history of premodern architecture through the material of precious stone. Lavishly illustrated examples include the synthetic gems used to simulate Sumerian and Egyptian heavens; the marble temples and mansions of Greece and Rome; the painted palaces and polychrome marble chapels of early modern Italy; and the multimedia revival in 19th-century England. Poetry, the lens for understanding costly marbles as an artistic medium, summoned a spectrum of imaginative associations and responses, from princes and patriarchs to the populace. Three salient themes sustained this “lithic imagination”: marbles as images of their own elemental substance according to premodern concepts of matter and geology; the perceived indwelling of astral light in earthly stones; and the enduring belief that colored marbles exhibited a form of natural—or divine—painting, thanks to their vivacious veining, rainbow palette, and chance images.
Sudpsuez Palm Beach Living by Jennifer Ash Rudick
Words by Jennifer Ash Rudick
Photographs by Nick Mele
Explore the pleasures of life in the homes and gardens of the legendary tropical island of Palm Beach.
Could it be the subtropical climate and seaside breezes that have drawn multiple generations to Palm Beach for more than a century? Or does its timeless appeal lie in its unique mixture of charming bungalows, sleek minimalist houses, chic apartments, and iconic Mediterranean Revival residences by such legendary architects as Maurice Fatio and John Volk? Though the nation’s most exclusive barrier island is perennially thronged with visitors, few have seen the private homes and gardens showcased in Palm Beach Living. Some of the homes incorporate the exuberant colors of the island’s tropical flora; others opt for a soothing, more neutral palette to contrast with the surrounding landscape. All embrace indoor/outdoor living, and each reflects the singular aesthetic of the owner, realized with the help of renowned architects, including Fairfax & Sammons, Chris Stone and David Fox, Daniel Kahan, and Jeffrey W. Smith; superb landscape architects such as Mario Nievera, Jorge Sánchez, and Fernando Wong; and such world-class interior designers as Tom Scheerer, Mark D. Sikes, the late Carleton Varney, Frank de Biasi, Mimi McMakin, Amanda Lindroth, Kim Coleman, and Jonathan Adler. Expertly guided by native Palm Beacher Jennifer Ash Rudick, with photographs by Nick Mele, readers are granted an intimate look at the best in tropical living.
