One of the last ceramics made by Pablo Picasso. It exudes the joy of life, with its light colours, the brightness around the eyes like rays of sunshine, and the luminous smile illuminating the face.
Each specimen is particular, with differences in the tones of the colours, the lines of the brushstrokes, the shape of the brushstrokes.
