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 round ceramic plate by Picasso rests on a sunlit surface of gravel. An overhead view captures the stylized face painted on its off-white center. Rendered in deep cobalt blue and vibrant, impasto-style yellow, the features include a prominent nose, looping eyebrows, and circular cheeks. A wide, grinning mouth is outlined in blue, revealing small teeth. Strong light from the upper left casts a distinct shadow to the right of the plate.
