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 for Georges Ramié's book "Céramique de Pablo Picasso," this oblong, black ceramic platter rests on a rough, sandy surface. It features a large, stylized owl, its form created by incised lines that reveal a lighter color beneath the dark glaze. The owl's expressive eyes and patterned feathers are complemented by white, six-pointed stars along the curved edges. At the bottom, its claws grip a section of contrasting reddish-brown terracotta. Strong, direct light casts a prominent shadow to the left of the platter.
