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

An oval ceramic platter by Pablo Picasso, photographed outdoors by Edward Quinn in 1972. The platter, resting on a sandy, gravelly surface, is decorated with a stylized face bisected by color: mottled brown on the left and deep blue on the right. A raised, off-white line frames the face, which features round eyes with pierced pupils and thick, black eyebrows. Strong sunlight highlights the glossy, crackled texture of the glaze, casting a distinct shadow. The image was taken for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso" (1974).
