"Hibou" / Owl
Pitcher designed by Pablo Picasso, model created in 1954.
Crafted in white earthenware, this pitcher features a decoration applied with engobes and a glaze in subtle shades of blue. The evocative form of the nocturnal bird, paired with Picasso's expressive lines, perfectly illustrates his poetic and playful interpretation of the owl.
Incised stamps "Madoura Plein Feu" and "d'après Picasso" on the reverse.
Edition limited to 200 copies.
