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 pitcher by Pablo Picasso features a stylized cubist face rendered in bold black outlines and off-white highlights. Set against a stark black background for Georges Ramié’s book, *Céramique de Pablo Picasso*, the vessel is dramatically illuminated from the left. The strong light accentuates its form, from the thick, striped handle and wide body to the light-colored glaze that drips from its flared rim, while casting deep shadows on the rough wooden surface below.
