Klassische Moderne – Ramié 604. - Eines von 250 Exemplaren. - Nach der Befreiung von Paris und dem Ende des 2. Weltkrieges verbringt Picasso vermehrt Zeit in Südfrankreich. 1946 besucht er eine Keramikausstellung in Vallauris, einem Ort in dem bereits seit römischen Zeiten Keramiken hergestellt werden. Er lernt Suzanne und Georges Ramié, Eigentümer der Madoura Manufaktur, kennen und folgt ihrer Einladung, selbst Keramiken zu modellieren. In den Folgejahren richtet er sich sein Atelier ein und erarbeitet zusammen mit den Ramiés ein umfangreiches Werk. Die Grundtechniken des historischen Handwerks erweiternd, entstehen variantenreiche, vielseitige Figuren, Teller und Vasen, das Material der Keramik höchst experimentell nutzend. Die Bildsprache Picassos und sein musée imaginaire sind dem Tierreich verankert, zentrale Motive werden u.a. Eulen, Fische und Stiere. In Umfang, Variantenreichtum und Ausdrucksvermögen stellen die Keramiken des Künstlers einen bedeutenden Teil in seinem Schaffen dar.

Classical Modernism – Ceramic. White earthenware, engobe, incised decoration and brushed glaze. Numbered and indicated on the base as well as with marks 'Madoura Plein Feu' and 'Edition Picasso'. - Slightly dusted, all in all very good. Splendid copy with vibrant surface. - One of 250 copies. - After the liberation of Paris and end of World War II, Picasso spents more and more time in the south of France. In 1946, he visits a ceramics exhibition in Vallauris, a town where ceramics have been produced since Roman times. He meets Suzanne and Georges Ramié, owners of the Madoura factory, and follows their invitation to try his hand at modelling ceramics. In the years to follow, he sets up his own studio and works with the Ramiés to create an extensive body of work. Expanding on the basic techniques of the historical craft, he creates a wide variety of figures, plates and vases, using the material of ceramics in a highly experimental way. Picasso's visual language and his musée imaginaire are anchored withi the animals with owls, fishe and bulls as one of his central motifs. In terms of scope, variety and expressiveness, the artist's ceramics represent a significant part of his oeuvre.
