POTTERS' SIGNATURES ON GOTHIC AND RENAISSANCE BOHEMIANS TILES

100%

Hazlbauer Z.

nr 2

205-216

The article evaluates and sums up the available published and unpublished data concerning signatures left on Gothic and Renaissance Bohemian tiles by their producers. Several tiles from the castle of Lichnice and the royal town of Chrudim were signed by the potter Jan Medek, about whom many interesting personal details have been found in municipal records. A late-Gothic relief plate with an antipapal inscription, found in the castle of Rabi, was signed by a certain Kubice. The back of a late-Renaissance matrix bears the date of production and the name of its maker, the potter Dobredelej from the town of Horazdovice in southern Bohemia, who is also frequently mentioned in municipal records. Many signatures can be found on late-Gothic cornice tiles from Prague. Thorough research has shown that they are names of potters working in the New Town of Prague, which is confirmed by mentions in the municipal books and the records of the potters guild. Apart from the full names of potters and matrix-producers many Bohemian tiles bear just letters, often in pairs; it is reasonable to conclude that some of those also stand for the makers' names. Technologically, a signature could be produced in two ways: either it was engraved on the original matrix and then the tile is ornamented with its positive image, or it was engraved on the imprint of the relief plate before its firing, and then the tile bears its negative.
