Madoura pottery with Pablo Picasso ceramics editions, Vallauris, date unknown, about 1978.

At the Madoura pottery workshop in Vallauris, circa 1978, a long wooden table is laden with creative works in progress. Rows of flat, round ceramic plates with simple dark patterns are laid out to dry. Amidst a clutter of papers and art supplies, illuminated by a warm desk lamp, a finished plate decorated with one of Pablo Picasso's whimsical, smiling sun faces leans against a stack of books. Rough walls tacked with sketches form the backdrop of this busy space where Picasso's celebrated ceramic editions were produced.
