Ceramic photographed 1972 by Quinn for the book: Ramié, Georges. "Céramique de Pablo Picasso", Cercle d'art, Paris 1974.

A ceramic plate by Pablo Picasso, photographed by Edward Quinn in 1972, rests on a bed of smooth, grey pebbles. The abstract face is depicted in a rustic style with two simple black circles for eyes, a reddish-brown triangular nose, and an oval mouth. Large patches of textured, crackled blue paint serve as cheeks against the creamy white base, while a thick, uneven rim with a dark green and black glaze borders the plate. Shot from above in bright sunlight, the ceramic casts a dark shadow onto the stones below.
