Faenza artistic craftwork

The traditional vocation for artistic creation which Faenza has expressed through the centuries still continues to flourish in artisan produced ceramics
.Let us not forget that the term "faenza-faience" is used as a synonym for majolica in certain European regions.

Faience craftwork has always tended to aristocratic rather than popular tastes, while translating models of a highly refined culture for mass consumption too: at one time it focused on the iconography of Italian Renaissance courts, now it focuses on art and design obtained directly through comparison with and assimilation of the language of the European historical avantgarde.
