Ceramic photographed 1972 by Quinn for the book: Ramié, Georges. "Céramique de Pablo Picasso", Cercle d'art, Paris 1974.
A rectangular ceramic printing block by Pablo Picasso, featuring a Cubist-style portrait of a woman's head and shoulders. In this relief carving, the raised terracotta surfaces contrast with recessed areas coated in dark, blue-black ink. The abstract face is rendered from multiple perspectives, its angular features detailed with fine, incised lines. Edward Quinn photographed the piece in 1972 for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso," using strong lighting from the upper left to emphasize its three-dimensional form against a wooden surface.
