Pottery tells us about religion, daily life, humour, trade, sex,
folklore and creativity. Bearing the imprint of their maker more
than any other crafted object, ceramics give us a unique physical
link to the past, often the only evidence of long-forgotten
civilizations that have otherwise crumbled to dust. From ancient
Egyptian canopic death jars to ethereally beautiful porcelain, and
from lewd Renaissance novelties to sleek contemporary vessels,
Around the World in 80 Pots is an eclectic journey across time and
cultures. Expertly selected from the unrivalled collection of the
University of Oxford's Ashmolean Museum, this compendium shows that
humankind's oldest craft is the perfect prism through which to view
human history.
