Maiolica Italian style medicine jar - Hunter Museum in Limerick
It is a type of painted pottery originating from the Italian Renaissance period, known for its bright colors and exquisite decorations. Its shape is cylindrical at the waist, which makes it easy to carry and store medication. The center front of the medicine jar is decorated with an oval shaped portrait of a man, surrounded by exquisite leaf shaped patterns and carving techniques. These decorations are mainly in blue, yellow, and white, showcasing the unique colors and artistic style of Majorica pottery. Portrait painting emphasizes the personality traits of characters, rather than traditional beauty or handsomeness, reflecting the Renaissance's emphasis on character and inner qualities.
