Pichet têtes, 1952

Considered the most important artist of the 20th century, Pablo Picasso began exploring ceramics in 1947 after visiting Vallauris on the Côte d'Azur. Over the years, he created jugs, plates, bowls, and much more, often inspired by the forms and motifs of ceramic objects from ancient Mediterranean cultures. These pieces were not merely a by-product of his artistic activity, but rather a means of expressing his creativity more fully and are fundamental to understanding his oeuvre as a whole.
