Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) "Cruchon Hibou" jug in glazed earthenware. Designed in 1955. From the edition of 500. Marked: D'après Picasso, Madoura Plein Feu, Ed. 500. Literature: A. Ramié, Picasso, Catalogue of the Edited Ceramic Works, 1947-1971, Madoura 1988, no. 293 In excellent condition. Dimensions: H 27.5 cm. x W 18.0 cm. Pablo Picasso, primarily known for his painting and sculpture, began experimenting with ceramics in the late 1940s. After moving to the south of France, he visited the Madoura Pottery workshop in Vallauris, where he met Georges and Suzanne Ramie. This marked the beginning of his exploration of ceramic art. Picasso created a wide range of pieces, from functional items like plates and vases to more sculptural works. His ceramics were influenced by his earlier works in painting, often featuring bold lines, abstract faces, animals, and surreal figures. He used various techniques, including hand-building and glazing, to produce intricate and playful designs. His ceramic work was also influenced by movements like Surrealism and African art. Picasso’s ceramics blurred the lines between functional objects and fine art, making everyday items into unique artistic creations. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, Picasso continued to produce ceramic works, collaborating with the Madoura workshop to create limited editions. His ceramics are now highly regarded for their innovation, demonstrating his versatility and creativity across different media.
