‎Hoe 18e-eeuws Engels keramiek Nederlands erfgoed werd. Beautiful forms and compositions are not made by chance Josiah Wedgwood. Waarom wilden Nederlanders in de 18e-eeuw thee schenken uit een Engelse pot in de vorm van een ananas of een bloemkool? Waarom wilden zij kopie n van klassieke siervazen her en der in hun interieur hebben staan? Wat maakte een bepaalde stijl zo aantrekkelijk, waarom viel het later weer uit de gratie? Wat voor verhaal zit daarachter? In twee ntwintig korte en toegankelijke hoofdstukken worden de 18e-eeuwse sociaal-culturele en politieke omstandigheden verteld die de vorm, decoratie en populariteit van een stuk keramiek bepaalden. Zo illustreerde elk voorwerp de tijdsgeest en werd het Nederlands erfgoed. How 18th-century English ceramics became Dutch heritage. 'Beautiful forms and compositions are not made by chance?' Josiah Wedgwood. Why did the Dutch in the 18th century want to serve tea from an English pot in the shape of a pineapple or a cauliflower? Why did they want to have copies of classic decorative vases scattered throughout their interior? What made a particular style so attractive, why did it later fall out of favor? What kind of story is behind that? Twenty-two short and accessible chapters recount the 18th-century socio-cultural and political circumstances that determined the form, decoration and popularity of a piece of ceramics. In this way, each object illustrated the spirit of the times and became Dutch heritage.‎
