Comentarios: | La Vega Blue on White is part of the "Morisco" (Christianized Muslim) ceramic tradition of fifteenth century southwestern Spain, centered around Seville. It has not been widely reported in the Americas outside of the Dominican Republic. It is distinguished from Santo Domingo Blue on White, with which it shares many design elements, by its smaller tableware vessel forms. Santo Domingo Blue on White is most commonly found in heavier-bodied utilitarian vessel forms. |
