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

A ceramic sculpture of a bird by Pablo Picasso, painted white with black spots, lies on its side on a rough stone ledge. Its head is turned back, looking upwards, and the coarse, textured surface features incised details suggesting feathers. Strong, direct sunlight creates sharp contrasts and deep shadows. This photograph was made by Edward Quinn in 1972 for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso" (1974).
