This is a complete catalogue of the Victoria and Albert Museum's fine collection - one of the most important outside Spain. It brings together objects made over seven centuries. At the same time. the book is conceived as a general history of Spanish pottery, and thus includes comparative pieces from other collections. It is the first book in English to present an overall view of the subject, and the first in any language to present Spanish pottery in a historical rather than a regional context. This major work is the result of many years of research in the great public and private collections in Spain and elsewhere in Europe.
