Description
Piatto in maiolica a decoro istoriato policromo, raffigurante l'apparizione dei tre angeli ad Abramo. Retro bianco rosato con filettature gialle.
Historical-Criticism news
Il decoro del piatto appartiene al genere dell'"istoriato", la pittura di storie sacre, mitologiche, allegoriche o letterarie tratte generalmente da celebri incisioni. La presenza di straordinarie personalità di pittori quali Guido Durantino e suo figlio Orazio Fontana, Nicola di Gabriele Sbraghe e Francesco Xanto Avelli fece di Urbino il principale centro di produzione della ceramica istoriata cinquecentesca.
Questo piatto si può attribuire alla bottega di Guido di Merlino, documentato fra il terzo e il settimo decennio del XVI secolo con officina situata nel quartiere di San Paolo.
