Ceramic photographed 1972 by Quinn for the book: Ramié, Georges. "Céramique de Pablo Picasso", Cercle d'art, Paris 1974.

A round, terracotta-colored ceramic plate by Pablo Picasso lies on a surface of dark gray gravel. Decorated with a stylized face in a primitive style, it has raised features and painted details: two deep circular holes for eyes, a T-shaped brow, and a prominent Y-shaped nose accented with white and black lines. The grinning mouth has individually sculpted teeth. Edward Quinn photographed this piece in 1972, lit by bright sun that casts a distinct shadow, for Georges Ramié's 1974 book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso."
