Description
- Pablo Picasso
- Figue de barbarie et ciseau
- stamped Madoura Plein Feu (on the underside)
- ceramic plate
- D. : 37.5 cm ; 14 3/4 in.
Provenance
Acquired from the family of the artist in the late 1980s
Condition
This work is in good condition. The ceramic is sound. There is a network of hairline shrinkage in the upper part of the composition. A close inspection reveals a 0.5cm loss of patina along the upper edge and a few tiny superficial scratches on the inside of the lower rim which appear to lie below the glaze and are thus almost certainly inherent to the artistic process.
Please note that there are remnants of an old mount and a plate hanger disk visible on the reverse.
