[Cantagalli majolica and the Florentine ceramic works] The third in a series of books that reconstruct the life of the Tuscan ceramics works, this fully illustrated volume focuses on the production of Cantagalli. Alongside the history of this protagonist of the Tuscan manufacturing scene, the book offers analysis of the histories of certain less familiar complexes that were once highly renowned in this sector. One of these is the Signa works, which represented an essential moment in the development of the Florentine style at the turn of the century, if only for its unsurpassed capacity to reproduce the sculptural masterpieces of the 1400s: thanks to Signa’s busts of Verrocchio, Donatello and Rossellino, the company invaded all of Europe.
