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

Photographed by Edward Quinn in 1972, this high-angle shot reveals the underside of a round ceramic plate by Pablo Picasso. Resting on dark, coarse sand, the piece has a vibrant, glossy green glaze. Its wide, flat rim is decorated with abstract matte black shapes, one marked with a purple splotch. The recessed center features dark, curvy figures and two impressed stamps confirming its origin: a rectangular “PICASSO” and a circular “MADOURA.” This photograph was taken for Georges Ramié's book, *Céramique de Pablo Picasso* (1974).
