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

Photographed by Edward Quinn in 1972 for a book on Pablo Picasso’s ceramics, this hand-crafted plate rests on a rough, cracked stone surface. Viewed from above, its irregular, organic shape features a stylized, abstract face painted in shades of blue. The facial features are defined by incised and painted dark blue lines and encircled by a light-colored, raised line. Dark blue strokes radiate from the head like hair, while broad, gestural swaths of an earthy ochre color adorn the cream-colored rim.
