JakeRyan 24 Jul 2021 #1Like seen in Prague and even in tiny towns like Stribro in Czech Republic?Sgraffito is a technique either of wall decor, produced by applying layers of plaster tinted in contrasting colours to a moistened surface, or in pottery, by applying to an unfired ceramic body two successive layers of contrasting slip or glaze, and then in either case scratching so as to reveal parts of the underlying layer.[1] The Italian past participle "sgraffiato" is also used, especially of pottery.

Miloslaw 19 | 4,993 26 Jul 2021 #4Why didin't Poland get Sgraffito facadesBut they did.So your research better.
OP JakeRyan 27 Jul 2021 #5@jon357Yes, there are but very few outside of Krakow for example. Most Polish buildings look cheaper-built. Compare the typical Polish town of Mielec with the typical Czech one Klatovy. No contest!Poles had the better girls though, can't have it all!
jon357 74 | 22,060 27 Jul 2021 #6utside of KrakowI was thinking specifically of Poznań and a few other places.That style of decoration is regional and associated with particular periods/places. You wouldn't expect to find it that much in Mielec.
OP JakeRyan 28 Jul 2021 #7Poznan's large, like 540,365 ppl. But wonderful Klatovy is only 22,000.If you compare Krosno and Sanok with Cheb or Klatovy you see that even the smaller Czech towns are more beautiful and have more wealth of classical architecture in the ryneks.
jon357 74 | 22,060 28 Jul 2021 #8If you compareYou could have found much nicer places than those two.
hmm 28 Jul 2021 #9You are comparing two towns from the richest western part of Czech Republic with two towns from eastern Poland. I'm not sure it's fair.
jon357 74 | 22,060 28 Jul 2021 #10I'm not sure it's fair.I don't think it's meant to be.Poland has some very fine examples of sgraffito.
Novichok 4 | 8,094 28 Jul 2021 #13Hey, easy, it sure looks like fine art to me. Picasso would be proud.
jon357 74 | 22,060 28 Jul 2021 #14Some examples of sgraffito in Poland. Two in Poznań and one in Krasiczyn.
pawian 224 | 24,479 30 Jul 2021 #15I'm not sure it's fair.Yes, that Jake Ryan is a loser troll. And he sucks at history. Simple.
Novichok 4 | 8,094 30 Jul 2021 #17Jake Ryan is a loser troll.But he has a good name for a US president or a CIA rogue agent.
