Ceramics outside Madoura pottery, Vallauris 1953.

A small, hand-molded clay sculpture of a seated figure rests on a rough wooden plank outside the Madoura pottery in Vallauris, 1953. The stylized, primitive work depicts a female form with prominent breasts, a rounded stomach, and simple slits for eyes. Its flattened base appears to bear an inscription or signature. Bright, direct lighting casts clear shadows that define the sculpture's form against a softly blurred outdoor background.
