Summary/Abstract: In the material of the Western and Central European stove tiles, the changing fashion of the different ages - the change of subject matter and decorative motifs - is easy to follow. Beyond the general international solutions, one can also perceive the specific characteristics of the larger regions as a result of the mutual influence of nearby workshops. In addition to current fashion, much of the numerous variations of motifs of identical imprinting generally show the influence of some common fundamental type being copied or modified. (Unfortunately, research rarely looks at this point.) International comparisons refer more to examples of identical themes, but there is no style study.) Despite their deviant style, individual workshops still use decorations that are fashioned elsewhere in any way or suggestion.
