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

An oval-shaped ceramic platter by Pablo Picasso, photographed by Quinn in 1972 for Georges Ramié's book "Céramique de Pablo Picasso." Resting on sandy ground, the platter features a large, embossed goat's head in a cubist-like style. The goat is detailed with incised lines and a pale, mint-green glaze against the unglazed ceramic base, while its horn is a solid, glossy black. A decorative border frames the grayish-blue, speckled surface. Strong, direct sunlight from the upper right casts a distinct shadow on the pebbly earth to the lower left.
