This is one of a small group decorated with young women wearing elaborate parade helmets. The only dated example, of 1522, is in the Museo Civico, Pesaro. Inscribed `FAVSTINA', it differs from the rest of the group in having a border of bound leaves and fruits. The others are `DEIDAMIA' in the Kunstgewerbe¬museum, Berlin.`BRADAMANTE BEL' at the Ceramic Museum at Sèvres, and later, and painted in a different style, `MARFISA' in the Museo Internationale delle Ceramiche at Faenza. Closely related to Deidamia is a small group of dishes with girls wearing visor-like headdresses and a cloth snood enclosing their hair at the back of their head: `CARENDINA' in the Lehman collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, `TARSIA B [Bella]' in the Gambier¬-Parry collec¬tion at the Courtauld Institute Galleries, London, and `PHILOMENA' in the Metropolitan Museum. The Fitzwilliam Museum's MARTA B' differs from all these in having an extremely long and slender neck, a zoomorphic helmet as opposed to one decorated with grotesque masks, wings or shell-like coils, and an arched name scroll instead of a coiling ribbon passing behind her shoulders. In this respect it resembles two dishes decorated with heads of men wearing Saracen-style helmets and having an arched scroll over their head bearing their name, 'CATELINA' and 'SANSONE'. There are several further dishes decorated with men wearing parade helmets with their names on scrolls below, including SCANDERBECH in the Musée des Arts décoratifs Lyon, and CORNELIO in the Louvre. reference term-147682 adlib-term-147682 27e95109-62eb-305b-b01d-b71655ff7d15 16th Century, third decade reference term-10618 adlib-term-10618 9ebc0ae1-8cf8-312b-832c-9cf44da02136 Renaissance reference term-113124 adlib-term-113124 9cb3d1b6-4d7f-31d1-9896-a75256a6780a literal Italy Italy country literal The Marches The Marches region Castel Durante reference term-110708 adlib-term-110708 ef038505-1555-3c61-b6e2-cadcedf6c42a literal Italy Italy country literal The Marches The Marches region Urbino reference term-39575 adlib-term-39575 cdf6707a-1eeb-3622-a26b-6e54f1f8d4ab tin-glaze reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Diameter cm 24 Height cm 4.8 reference media-52750 adlib-media-52750 a979799f-3d43-3d1b-a400-8b8c36e947f6 jpeg aa/aa19/C_63_1927.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 733 1742584162642 1 image jpeg aa/aa19/mid_C_63_1927.jpg 1 height pixels 518 width pixels 500 1742584162642 1 image jpeg aa/aa19/C_63_1927.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 733 1742584162642 1 image jpeg aa/aa19/preview_C_63_1927.jpg 1 height pixels 259 width pixels 250 1742584162642 1 image 0 media image reference term-90855 adlib-term-90855 b48207ec-774d-3e3e-8ab3-536996bc5dac dish dish standing on low foot history note M. & R.
