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

Photographed in 1972 for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso," this stylized ceramic jug by the artist is shaped like a bird. Set against a dark, shadowy background, the light-colored vessel features a bulbous body and a tall neck adorned with bold, grey brushstrokes forming a prominent eye and feather-like patterns. Dramatic side lighting highlights the ceramic’s contours and texture while casting the other side in deep shadow.
