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.

locations."}],"periods":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-106437","uid":"adlib-term-106437","uuid":"59e72604-922d-3194-ac46-27c1c5ac76a4"},"summary_title":"15th Century,

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\u00acmuseum, Berlin.`BRADAMANTE BEL' at the Ceramic Museum at S\u00e8vres, and later, and painted in a different style, `MARFISA' in the Museo Internationale delle Ceramiche at Faenza.                                                                       \nClosely 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\u00ac-Parry collec\u00action 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'.

By then its rooms were below ground and became known as grotte, from which the term grot\u00actesche was derived. Taken up by artists such as Pinturicchio and Signor\u00acelli, and dissemi\u00acnated by prints, grotesques rapidly became one of the most popular forms of Renaissance decoration. Maiolica potters working in Siena  had local examples in the splendid pendentives of the vault in the Piccolom\u00acini Library in the Cathe\u00acdral, which was commissioned by Cardinal Francesco Piccolomini from Pintur\u00acicchio and was completed about 1507.                                                                                                                                                                            \nThis tile fragment (and C.128-1927, C.129-1927, and C.130-1927) and another border tile fragment which has lost most of its glaze (C.131-1927) formed part of a tile pavement commissioned by Pandolfo Petrucci (1452-1512) for the Camera Bella, one of a suite of rooms in the Palazzo Petrucci which were to be occupied by his heir Borghesi Petrucci on his marriage to Vittoria Piccolomini which took place on 22 September 1509. The room is thought to have been decorated between 1508 and Petrucci's death, and three of the tiles are dated 1509. The pavement comprises pentagonal tiles of two sizes, square tiles and rectangular border tiles. Some of the square tiles are decorated with the quartered arms of Piccolomini and Petrucci, celebrating the 1509 marriage, or with trophies, or with figures in landscapes reminiscent of those by Pinturicchio, Signorelli and Genga. The majority are decorated with grotesques, and the pavement as a whole is one of the most outstanding illustrations of this genre on early sixteenth-century maiolica. Miller and Graves (see Documentation) have shown that the tiles were originally arranged in a way which produced an eight-pointed star and cross pattern comparable to Islamic star and cross tile patterns. The cross being formed by a square tile with four pentagonal tiles around it and the star by a small square with four small pentagonal tiles to form a cross, and four contrasting square tiles in the spaces between them. \nThe earliest recorded date for the dispersal of the pavement is November 1854 when the British Museum purchased one from the estate of a London dealer, William Forrest, who died in that year. (inv. 1854,11-2,2). The largest group surviving together is in the Victoria and Albert Museum, which acquired 475 tiles from the pavement in the 1857, but now has about 433, and there are over 90 in other collections. Further examples in Britain , are six in the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, Stoke-on-Trent, two in the National Museums of Scotland, Edinburgh, two in the Courtauld Gallery, London, and two fragments probably from the pavement in the Brtiish Museum. When cataloguing the seventeen  tiles in the Museum f\u00fcr Kunst und Gewerbe, Ham\u00acburg in 1984, Rasmussen listed the locations of other tiles from the pavement, and his list was updated and added to by Thornton and Wilson in 2009. The largest group is held by the Mus\u00e9e du Louvre.
