This tin-glazed earthenware wine cooler by Enea Vico features a depiction of the Battle of Mühlberg, where Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, defeated the Protestant League in 1547. Vico, known for his mastery of “istoriato” (narrative) maiolica, incorporated the battle scene with the vivid details and perspective characteristic of the Renaissance. This Italian maiolica exemplifies the fusion of art and functional objects, making it an important example of 16th-century ceramic production.
