Photographed by Edward Quinn in 1972 for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso," this terracotta sculpture of a stylized bird's head is captured outdoors in bright sunlight. Resting on a stone plinth, its light brown surface is adorned with bold black and white painted decorations. Prominently featured on the head is a stylized owl with large, concentric circle eyes, accompanied by another bird figure and patterns of dots and feather-like strokes. The strong light creates high contrast against the rustic wooden and stone background.
