Théodore Deck was a central figure in the revival of ceramic art in France and one of the most esteemed ceramic artists in the late nineteenth century. He completely transformed the art of faience, and was internationally renowned for reinventing techniques and styles from past centuries and Asian cultures. In this sumptuous book, architect and collector Peter Marino shares his collection of more than 250 Deck masterpieces for the first time, each beautifully reproduced in a luxurious oversized format.
