Die Majolikasammlung Alfred Pringsheim in München The limited edition of 200 copies; The illustrations are painted photographs based on the originals, which were then reproduced in colour prints. By today's standards, this was an unimaginably laborious and costly process. The work lives from its wonderful colour illustrations. this publication, Otto von Falke, then director of the Museum of Decorative Arts in Berlin and one of the best experts on the subject, offers a selection of the best and most typical pieces of Italian majolica from the largest and most important private collection of Alfred Pringsheim.
