- Lot Description
Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881-1973). "Visage" (Face) ceramic bowl, 1955. Reference: A. Ramie 290. Ed. 500. Inscribed "EDITION PICASSO MADOURA" on the underside. A white earthenware clay turned round cupel with decoration in engobes of black, red, and green under glaze. The design features Picasso's bold, expressive facial imagery surrounded by a dotted border and a radiating motif on the interior and on the exterior, alternating teal glaze over an incised zigzag and russet red brushmarks over black glaze. Among the rare limited edition ceramics Picasso created with the Madoura pottery workshop in Vallauris in the South of France! Size: 5.125" diameter (13 cm)
Pablo Picasso collaborated with the Madoura pottery studio to create ceramic works for almost 25 years. Georges and Suzanne Ramie founded the Madoura Pottery studio in Vallauris, France. The Ramies are probably best known for their wonderful collaborations with Picasso which resulted in an impressive oeuvre of Picasso ceramics. The Madoura pottery studio (Madoura being an acronym for MAison + DOUly (Suzanne’s maiden name) + Ramie) opened in an abandoned factory building on April 29th, 1938. Picasso first discovered the Madoura workshop in 1946 and from then on maintained a 24-year collaboration, creating works inspired by his sketches.
