Studio Le Fournas, Vallauris 1953.

A ceramic vase with a curvaceous, anthropomorphic form is the subject of this still life, photographed in 1953 at the studio Le Fournas in Vallauris. The light-colored ceramic is adorned with dark, swirling stripes and a stylized face, while large, looping handles suggest arms held aloft. The piece is displayed on a makeshift pedestal composed of weathered planks, a circular stone base, and a simple wooden stool, all set against a dark, textured wall that highlights its sculptural quality.
