Evoking a sentimental Spanish tradition, this piece would make a fine addition to any collection. Created in 1956, this piece was created out of the Edition Picasso from the Madoura Pottery Workshop in the South of France. Numbered 74/100, Ramié classifies this work as an Authentic Replica. Made of white earthenware clay with decorations in engobes, engraved by knife, paraffin, and white enamel. The Mediterranean sun radiates it brilliant warmth to the dancing figures decorating the inner rim of the bowl. Accented by decorative engravings coupled with yellows, reds, and blacks, the colors provide an eye-catching display against the muted tones of the earthenware clay. The Figures are energetic and full of movement as they dance around the dazzling sun; the bowl is finished with a smooth shine, allowing it to twinkle with highlights and lowlights throughout.
