Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Earle Collection of Early Staffordshire Pottery: Illustrating Over Seven Hundred Different Pieces Nevertheless, his object has been to arrange that the text and numbers should be opposite the corresponding illustrations: this has been attained, and should conduce to easy perusal. The various sections are prefaced, so far as possible, by a short introduction to the particular School to be illustrated, and in the Contents, p. Xv., is given the number of its commencing page. The Author trusts that this explanation will be received in good faith, and that the fact of the illustrations being so usefully placed opposite their numbers will in some measure compensate for lack of sequence. Whilst thus dwelling upon the details, the opportunity offers for acknowledging the valuable assistance of Mr. Frank Falkner, alike as regards his contribution to this book, for his unfailing courtesy in consultation upon various matters, and in reading through proofs, etc. To Mr. T. Sheppard the author is very much indebted for his most interesting chapter dealing with the Evolution of the Potter's Art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Yorkshire Potteries, Pots and Potters Strictly speaking, under the above heading, one ought to include the vast amount of pottery which was made in the broad-acred county during the ancient British, the Woman, the Saxon, and the Mediaeval periods. But to do this properly would, unfortunately. more than double or treble the space at my command. Indeed, as it is, the difficulty has been to compress what I had to say within the limits of this paper, which only deals with Yorkshire Pottery as it is known to Collectors. For a good many years I have been much interested in the subject, and I think what first started me was being the possessor of a small collection, which came to me from my forbears. I have taken infinite pains in getting together my information. I have hunted up old men who have worked at the various potteries, have visited the sites of most of the potteries dealt with, and have taken photographs of some of them, and have been in communication with many collectors and others who were interested in the subject: but, even so, I am only too conscious of many sins of omission and commission, but I have done my best, and 1 trust that my critics will let me down lightly. This I will say, that it is no easy matter to hunt up the particular information one wants about long forgotten people and places, and it has taken me a very considerable lime to do so, yet I have enjoyed the work, and have obtained much instruction and amusement in the process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1906 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXVII NOW --AND AFTER Above all, a nation cannot last as a money-making mob: --it cannot with impunity, --it cannot with existence, --go on despising literature, despising science, despising art, despising nature, despising compassion, and concentrating its soul on Pence. Do you think these are harsh or wild words? Have patience with me but a little longer. I will prove them to you, clause by clause. "Sesame and Lilies." WHAT Ruskin wrote in 1871, in relation to that epoch, may be applied with equal if not acuter force to this. Indeed, some of his remarks (if extended quotation came within our province) are quite prophetic in their extreme modernity. "That is our real idea of 'Free Trade, '" he says; "'all the trade to myself You now find that by 'competition' other people can manage to sell something as well as you--and now we call for Protection again. Wretches!" It would be foolish to estimate the present standing and future prospects of the potting industry from the published statements of modern Protectionists; as, if we did, we must admit it to be in a very bad way, merely as an industry. Neither Protectionist nor Free Trader claim that English ceramics are artistic. And the spokesmen and writers of one of these sections claim that some of our rivals' productions, notably the Germans, are artistic. The claim has no solid foundation in fact. The exact artistic level of ordinary English (and especially Staffordshire) crockery may be easily determined by the "man in the street," if he will take the trouble to compare the average crockery shop with the average draper's, silversmith's, paper-hanger's, bookseller's, or even ironmonger's. As a mere trade the artistic level of the potting "trade" in England cannot be placed high, even...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Earthenware Collector Naturally the author touches lightly on the earlier British wares as scarcely coming within the scope of the ordinary collector, whose interest is likely to be confined to a definite period beginning with the pictur esque Slip ware of 'wrotham in the early decades of the seventeenth century and continuing until the opening of the Victorian era, when Pottery shared with the rest of the arts the decline inseparable from the greatly increased resort to mechanical means of production, to say nothing of the tyranny of commercial and utilitarian principles.
