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 dynamic bullfighting scene in raised, black-painted relief. A picador on a rearing horse thrusts a lance into a bull, while the stands and spectators are suggested by abstract forms above. Resting on a light-brown wooden surface, the plate casts a strong shadow, a detail captured by Quinn in this 1972 photograph taken for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso."
