Cenni sulla maniera di rinvenire i vasi fittili italo-greci : sulla loro costruzione, sulle loro fabbriche più distinte e sulla progressione e decadimento dell'arte vasaria / di Raffaele Gargiulo
Raffaele Gargiulo's Italian treatise of 1831, printed by the Stamperia reale, explains how Italo-Greek painted pottery was found, made and decorated, and how the craft rose and declined. Its plates are engraved line drawings of vases and kilns, with figures in silhouette-like outline. A designer could take from them the stylised black-and-red figure friezes and the varied vase silhouettes, from amphorae and kraters to small jugs.
