The ceramics of Gubbio
In Gubbio , archive documents show the work of master ceramists as far back as 1300.
Medieval testimonies show an archaic majolica with geometric or vegetal decorations in green and brown. But the fame of the ceramic tradition of this city is linked to the great ceramist Giorgio Andreoli, known as Mastro Giorgio , who arrived in Gubbio in 1489 from Intra, on Lake Maggiore. It was the art of applying lustre , of which Mastro Giorgio was the undisputed master, that made the Eugubine ceramics famous: gold, silver, green and above all a beautiful ruby red of intense hue.
