| | Racine Faenza - Short history |
 | | The tradition was born from a happy convergence of favourable conditions: a territory rich in clay, a centuries-old history of political and commercial relations with nearby Tuscany (especially with Florence) and great sensitivity and aptitude with regard to this art form. | | | The historic production of Faenza majolica is recognized worldwide as one of the highest moments of artistic creativity expressed through pottery. | | | In September and October international contemporary and classical ceramic art events draw majolica amateurs, collectors and artists to Faenza from all over the world. |

| | CERAMICS IN FAENZA |
| | In the second half of the century, around 1870, thanks to Achille Farina, majolica painter trained as a ceramist at the Ferniani pottery together with a group of skilled decorators, a real painting school on majolica was started: imitating the technique of easel painting, it has left water-colours views and unrivalled portraits. | | | This was the triumph of the "flowered" style which also made wide use of "Raphaelesque" decorations, an evolution of the previous grotesque motifs. | | | Among the attempts of reviving it at the beginning of our century, those of the "Fabbriche Riunite di Ceramica" must be mentioned for giving a new start to nineteenth-century potteries, under a single management; in the same years, in addition, a newly founded firm, the pottery of the Minardi brothers, was started. |
