| Notes | When it was first published in 1980 The Dictionary of Wedgwood rapidly established itself as the standard reference for museums, collectors dealers and auction houses. Now Robin Reilly has revised and enlarged this essential reference work after much intensive research among the Wedgwood archives and in many of the world's most important collections. Besides correcting dates and descriptions in the earlier editions, he has included his latest discoveries about jasper and the terracotta body (wrongly identified for more than a century) and added much information about Wedgwood's nineteenth and twentieth century wares which are of growing interest to collectors. He discusses the entire range of wares, the manufacturing processes, the subjects and the styles of decoration and their sources, not forgetting the men and women who played such an important part in the firm's direction. |
