Plaster moulds/blocks for the production of ceramic editions. Madoura pottery, Vallauris 1961.

Plaster moulds for the production of ceramic editions rest on the floor of the sunlit Madoura pottery workshop in Vallauris, 1961. A patch of bright light illuminates the detailed, embossed designs on the round blocks, one featuring a horse-like figure. In the background, rough-hewn wooden shelves recede into deep shadow, holding an assortment of pottery. The strong contrast highlights the varied textures of the plaster, the rough wood, and the uneven brick floor.
