Abstract

Since 2006, the CNR-ISTEC in Faenza (Italy) and the Bureau of Monuments and Archaeology in Amsterdam (The Netherlands) are involved in an international research project on European tin-glazed ceramics from the early modern period. The project deals with the study of imported “compendiario” majolica found as a result of archaeological excavations in the Netherlands, in contexts dating from the first half of the seventeenth century. In the upcoming years, the cooperation will expand to English and French scientific institutions.
