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, this ceramic plate by Pablo Picasso rests on rough, sandy ground. Captured from above, the piece features a dark, matte brown base and a heavily textured, three-dimensional design. In the center, a stylized, mask-like face is sculpted from thick, impasto-like glaze in shades of white and pale green. A ring of raised dots encircles the face, while the wide rim is decorated with a repeating pattern of vibrant yellow oval shapes. This photograph was taken for Georges Ramié's 1974 book, *Céramique de Pablo Picasso*.
