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

A uniquely shaped ceramic by Pablo Picasso, photographed by Edward Quinn in 1972 for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso." The anthropomorphic sculpture stands on a wooden block in bright sunlight, its white base adorned with bold black and terracotta decorations. It has a bulbous lower body, two large, curved handles striped in black and white, and a top section decorated with owl features. A large, stylized human face is painted in black on the main body of the vessel, which casts a distinct shadow against a rough stone wall.
