Ceramic photographed 1972 by Quinn for the book: Ramié, Georges. "Céramique de Pablo Picasso", Cercle d'art, Paris 1974.
A round, terracotta-colored ceramic plate by Pablo Picasso, decorated with a stylized face in bold black and white glazes. The primitive-style visage features square eyes, a T-shaped nose and brow, and a wide, grinning mouth framed by a gestural application of white glaze as hair and beard. Photographed by Edward Quinn in 1972 from a top-down perspective, the plate rests on a dark stone surface, its strong shadow cast by direct sunlight. This image was created for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso" (1974).
