17th Century Spanish Jug in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, March 2008

17th Century Spanish Jug in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, March 2008
Jug
Tin-enameled earthenware
Spanish (Talavera de la Reina), 17th century

Accession # 94.4.62

The bold, sketchily drawn designs on this jug are typical of Talavera, in Castile, where potters broke with the Hispano-Moresque lusterware tradition to develop a vivacious polychrome pictorial style related to northern Italian wares of the period.
