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

An off-white, oblong ceramic platter by Pablo Picasso is viewed from directly above on a dark, coarse-textured surface. The platter is carved with the stylized image of a bearded face with closed eyes and a smiling mouth. A full beard is rendered with short, incised lines, while the rim is decorated with carved notches and pierced holes. Edward Quinn photographed the piece in 1972 with harsh, direct light for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso" (1974).
