Terra
Cotta
Painting.
Terra
Cotta
is
an
Italian
term
for
"burnt-earth."
Bricks
are
a
coarse
kind
of
terra
cotta.
The
new
building
erected
at
Kensington
for
the
reception
of
valuable
remains
and
subjects
of
natural
history,
is
built
entirely
of
terra
cotta
slabs.
Terra
Cotta
vases
of
the
early
and
late
Etruscan
period,
such
as
those
in
the
British
Museum,
are
priceless.
These
are
painted
in
various
designs,
and
burnt
in.
The
Doulton
Ware
is
a
close,
if
not
exact,
representation
of
these
matchless
specimens.
Terra
Cotta
painting
is
simply
vases
and
plates
of
red
terra
cotta,
painted
in
Greek
designs
with
ordinary
black
paint,
and
then
varnished,
or
plates
painted
with
a
similar
medium,
in
flowers
of
various
colours.
These
last,
of
course,
are
no
imitations
of
the
antique.
