Initially it was used for the borders of istoriato scenes, and by the last decade of the century often occupied much of the surfaces of dishes and other vessels. This dish belonged to an armorial service of which at least nine other pieces are extant. Four circular dishes have a Saint in the middle and the arms on the rim above: St Paul, in the Walters Art Museum, Baltimore (48.1516); St Thomas, formerly in the Bak collection; St Mark formerly in the Pringsheim and Hannaford collections; and St John, formerly in the Ridout collection. A fifth with the arms in the well was sold anonymously by Sotheby's in 1980 and is now in the Gardiner Museum, Toronto (G83.1.405). Four oval dishes decorated respectively with a figure representing Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winters, are in the  Museo d'Arti Applicate, Milan (inv. nos. 234, 240, 239 and 236). The service was probably made around 1600 because the style of its grotesque decoration is close to a dish in the Louvre, Paris, bearing the arms of Cardinal Paolo Emilio Zacchia (Cardinal 1598-1605), and attributed to the Patanazzi workshop in Urbino. The best-known family who bore the arms on this dish - bendy or and azure - was the Contarini of Venice. Possible members of the family who were either an archbishop or a bishop, indicated by the green hat and cross above the arms, were Tommaso Contarini who was Archbishop of Crete (1597-1605), or a less notable cleric, Gerolamo Contarini who was Bishop of Capo d'Istria (1600-20).                                                                                                                  \nThe dish is historically interesting because its ownership can be traced back to 1712 when it was sold with the dishes mentioned above  by Girolamo Talpa (1654-1739) of San Severino (Marche) to Cardinal Filippo Antonio Gualtieri (1660-1728). Five, including the Fitzwilliam's were later in the collection of Sir Andrew Fountaine of Narford Hall, Norfolk, and were sold by Christie, Manson & Woods in 1884."}],"periods":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-106402","uid":"adlib-term-106402","uuid":"7466a5d6-293f-3bbc-9672-fa9dd41712be"},"summary_title":"16th Century, Late"},{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-106607","uid":"adlib-term-106607","uuid":"61babb74-f8fd-3e53-abf6-c2c2f5dd351b"},"summary_title":"17th Century, Early"},{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-10618","uid":"adlib-term-10618","uuid":"9ebc0ae1-8cf8-312b-832c-9cf44da02136"},"summary_title":"Renaissance"}],"places":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-110708","uid":"adlib-term-110708","uuid":"ef038505-1555-3c61-b6e2-cadcedf6c42a"},"hierarchies":[[{"@link":{"type":"literal"},"name":[{"value":"Italy"}],"summary_title":"Italy","type":"country"}]],"note":[{"value":"probably"}],"summary_title":"Urbino"}]}]},"materials":[{"reference":{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-39575","uid":"adlib-term-39575","uuid":"cdf6707a-1eeb-3622-a26b-6e54f1f8d4ab"},"summary_title":"tin-glaze"}},{"reference":{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-42861","uid":"adlib-term-42861","uuid":"5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c"},"summary_title":"earthenware"}}],"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"Diameter","units":"cm","value":"33.4"},{"dimension":"Height","units":"cm","value":"5.6"}]},"multimedia":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"media-47457","uid":"adlib-media-47457","uuid":"a01be7b9-9ba9-3d54-aa8a-a426dc57433e"},"processed":{"large":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa19\/C_90_1961_283_29.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":760},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":753}]},"modified":1742583575819,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"mid":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa19\/mid_C_90_1961_283_29.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":505},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":500}]},"modified":1742583575819,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"original":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa19\/C_90_1961_283_29.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":760},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":753}]},"modified":1742583575819,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"preview":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa19\/preview_C_90_1961_283_29.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":252},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":250}]},"modified":1742583575819,"resizable":true,"type":"image"}},"sort":"0","type":{"base":"media","type":"image"}},{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"media-47456","uid":"adlib-media-47456","uuid":"4e3d25a9-3bd1-3d81-8989-3652034c0b77"},"processed":{"large":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa9\/C_90_1961_282_29.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":740},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":570}]},"modified":1742583634673,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"mid":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa9\/mid_C_90_1961_282_29.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":649},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":500}]},"modified":1742583634673,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"original":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa9\/C_90_1961_282_29.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":740},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":570}]},"modified":1742583634673,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"preview":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa9\/preview_C_90_1961_282_29.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":325},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":250}]},"modified":1742583634673,"resizable":true,"type":"image"}},"sort":"1","type":{"base":"media","type":"image"}}],"name":[{"reference":{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-90855","uid":"adlib-term-90855","uuid":"b48207ec-774d-3e3e-8ab3-536996bc5dac"},"summary_title":"dish"}},{"value":"dish with broad rim"}],"note":[{"type":"history note","value":"Probably Girolamo Talpa (1654-1739),San Severino (Marche); sold by him to Cardinal Filippo Antonio Gualtieri (1660-1728), Orvieto and Rome.

This situation improved after Guidobaldo II della Rovere succeeded to the dukedom of Urbino in 1538, because he preferred to live at Pesaro. The presence of the court stimulated local industries, and from around 1540 Pesaro became a significant producer of istoriato maiolica, that is, painted with narrative scenes."},{"value":"Hero was a priestess of Venus at Sestos. Leander, her lover, used to swim the Hellespont to see her, guided by a torch which she held up from the window of a high tower. One night in winter, when Hero had begged him to come despite the inclement weather, he was drowned, and she committed suicide by throwing herself from the tower. The lovers were mentioned in Ovid's Heroides, 18 and 19."},{"value":"Sforza di Marcantonio da Casteldurante was recorded as a potter, and sometimes also as a painter in documents in Pesaro between in 1550 and 1552, and almost every year from 1563 until 1580, when he made his will on 17 November, and probably died shortly after. He signed himself 'SFORZA' on two panels dated 1567, respectively in the British Museum and the Museo Civico Medievale, Bologna. Dishes signed '.S.' in 1561, as this one is, and in some years up to and including 1576, are attributed to him on the basis of similarities with these panels. Sforza's choice of subjects, iconography, and inscriptions suggest that during the late 1530s he had been contact with the Urbino maiolica painter, Francesco Xanto, whose latest signed works are dated in 1542. Several of Sforza's designs closely follow those on plates by Xanto, who painted several dishes with versions of 'Hero and Leander' between 1532 and 1538. Xanto probably knew the story from a translation of Ovid's Heroides, but on the backs of the dishes he quoted from Francesco Petrarch's Trionfi, III, 21 'Leandro in mare ed Hero a la fenestra'  (or Trionfi, II in editions with commentary by Bernardo Ilicini, first published in 1475).  The first dish decorated with this subject which is attributed to Sforza was painted in 1546 (Christie's, 25 May 1962, lot 110); the latest, in the Herzog Anton Ulrich-Museum, Braunschweig, is dated 1576, and initialled '.S.'  Both, like the Fitzwilliam's dish, have an inscription from Petrarch, and the figure of Leander used by Xanto, which was taken from a Marcantonio Raimondi school print, known as the 'Battle with the Cutlass' by Marco Dente (Bartsch, XIV, p 171, no. 211), or Agostino da Veneziano. The three dishes illustrate the persistence of popular themes over a long period, the influence of an outstanding maiolica painter on another, and the repetitive nature of much maiolica painting."}],"periods":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-106602","uid":"adlib-term-106602","uuid":"bbb4c00f-eefa-3d64-9441-7a75aa07736e"},"summary_title":"16th Century"},{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-10618","uid":"adlib-term-10618","uuid":"9ebc0ae1-8cf8-312b-832c-9cf44da02136"},"summary_title":"Renaissance"}],"places":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-113179","uid":"adlib-term-113179","uuid":"e74d25a1-07c3-3a30-b91b-004673211ee5"},"hierarchies":[[{"@link":{"type":"literal"},"name":[{"value":"Italy"}],"summary_title":"Italy","type":"country"},{"@link":{"type":"literal"},"name":[{"value":"The Marches"}],"summary_title":"The Marches","type":"region"}]],"summary_title":"Pesaro"}]}]},"materials":[{"reference":{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-42861","uid":"adlib-term-42861","uuid":"5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c"},"summary_title":"earthenware"}}],"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"Diameter","units":"cm","value":"30"},{"dimension":"Height","units":"cm","value":"4.2"}]},"multimedia":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"media-52825","uid":"adlib-media-52825","uuid":"f29d9a81-9e93-3fdd-9406-554647e4635c"},"processed":{"large":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa19\/C_21_1995.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":760},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":748}]},"modified":1742584149739,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"mid":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa19\/mid_C_21_1995.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":508},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":500}]},"modified":1742584149739,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"original":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa19\/C_21_1995.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":760},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":748}]},"modified":1742584149739,"resizable":true,"type":"image"},"preview":{"format":"jpeg","location":"aa\/aa19\/preview_C_21_1995.jpg","location_is_relative":true,"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"height","units":"pixels","value":254},{"dimension":"width","units":"pixels","value":250}]},"modified":1742584149739,"resizable":true,"type":"image"}},"sort":"0","type":{"base":"media","type":"image"}}],"name":[{"reference":{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-90855","uid":"adlib-term-90855","uuid":"b48207ec-774d-3e3e-8ab3-536996bc5dac"},"summary_title":"dish"}}],"note":[{"type":"history note","value":"Purchased.

It was one of eight Gonzaga devices pictured on tiles commissioned from Pesaro in 1493 by Giovanni Sforza on behalf of Marquis Francesco II Gonzaga (1466-1519) for his villa at Marmirolo. However, on their arrival at the Castel San Giorgio in Mantua on 1 June 1494, some of them were laid in the studiolo of his wife, Isabella d'Este (1474-1539). The project seems to have been undertaken partly for aesthetic reasons and partly as a measure to rid the room of mice which had been nesting under the floorboards. Apart from this, maiolica pavements were not very practical in domestic situations because their colourful designs were gradually worn away by people's feet. The back of this tile, like some of the others from this pavement, was scooped out to produce three concentric circles. This may have been done to speed the drying of the tiles before firing or to prevent them warping in the kiln.\nThe potter's name was not mentioned in the surviving corres\u00acpondence of 1493-4 concerning the tiles, but he may have been Antonio dei Fedeli of Pesaro, who was active in Pesaro between 1458 and 1509. On 7 May 1496 wrote to Isabella asking to be paid for tiles for which he had been prom\u00acised payment six months earlier. Presumably these were a differ\u00acent order but it seems likely that, having been satisfied with the tiles decorated with devices, Isabella would have extended her patronage to the same potter for another commission.\nThe other seven emblems on the tiles were  the arms of Gonzaga; a dove perching on a coiled and smoking fuse inscribed `VRAI AMOVR NESE CHANGE' (true love does not change); a sunburst interwoven by two ribbons inscribed `PER VND\/IXIR' (for a desire); a white doe below a scroll inscribed `BIDER GRAFT' (righteous power); a three-tiered island surmounted by a diamond and surrounded by smoking brands, inscribed on the lowest tier of the island in Greek `AMVMOC' (blame\u00acless); a muzzle over a ribbon inscribed `CAVTIVS' (more cautiously); and a steel gauntlet attached to a ribbon inscribed `BVENA FE NONES MVDABLE' (good faith is unchangeable). \nAfter her husband's death, Isabella moved to different apart\u00acments on the ground floor of the Corte Vecchia, and recreated her studiolo there. The first studiolo no longer exists and the subsequent history of the tiles is unknown until some, whether from there or from Marmirolo is not clear, were recorded in the collec\u00actions of Attilio Portioli of Mantua and Willelmo Braghirolli in 1878. Those now in the museum collec\u00actions were acquired after that date.
