Greek and Italian Black-Gloss Wares and Related Wares in the Royal Ontario Museum by John W Hayes

by John W. Hayes

This catalogue traces black-glaze' ceramics from the early Ionion cups', through the true black-glaze' of Classical Athens and its derivatives, to Roman Republican Campana wares and other Greek and Italian pots with added paint, including Gnathia ware. In his descriptions and introduction the author shows how disparate the types commonly referred to as black glaze' really are. The 295 examples are well illustrated in line drawings and b/w photos.
