  • Earthenware - A basic ceramic material that is fired at a low temperature. Earthenware is the basis of almost all ancient, medieval, Middle Eastern and European painted ceramics. After firing, the colour is the colour of the clay when it is dug from the ground: buff, brown and red. It is not waterproof until glazed. Creamware is a type of earthenware covered with a transparent lead glaze. Majolica, faience and delft are also earthenware covered in an opaque white tin glaze.
  • Arcadian Landscape / Setting / Scene - An Arcadian landscape is a type of landscape that is characterized by its peaceful, idyllic, and rustic setting. It is often associated with the idealized countryside of ancient Greece, and it is often depicted as a rural landscape with rolling hills, forests, streams, and meadows. Arcadian landscapes are often depicted in art and literature as being a place of retreat, where people can escape the stresses and demands of modern life and find a sense of peace and solitude. They are often associated with the concept of Arcadia, which was a region of ancient Greece that was known for its beauty and tranquility.
