"The Ceramic Art of Great Britain from Pre-Historic Times Down to the Present Day" by Llewellynn Jewitt is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work serves as a comprehensive examination of the evolution of pottery and porcelain in Britain, chronicling its development from ancient times to contemporary practices. The book is likely aimed at manufacturers, collectors, and general readers interested in the rich history and artistry of British ceramics. At the start of the book, Jewitt outlines the significance of ceramic art in Britain, asserting that its history is intensely fascinating and essential. He differentiates between two approaches: a technical focus on the craft of pottery and a historical perspective that considers the evolution of ceramic practices through various British cultural periods. The opening also indicates his intent to blend technical explanations with historical narratives, mentioning his reliance on extensive personal research into archaeological findings and historical documents to bring this subject to light. Jewitt aims not only to narrate the past but also to appreciate the continuous evolution and potential of ceramic art within British culture.
