A.R. 37 – Visage Noir, plate B, is a striking ceramic work by Pablo Picasso, highlighting his mastery of expressive line and bold, simplified form. The dramatic white visage set against a dark background reflects Picasso’s ongoing exploration of mask-like imagery and the emotional power of abstraction. With its commanding graphic presence and sculptural character, this piece stands as a strong example of Picasso’s celebrated ceramics and an enduringly collectible work.
Through his collaboration with the Madoura pottery studio in Vallauris, France, Picasso elevated ceramics to a major artistic medium, experimenting freely with form, surface, and imagery while working closely with master artisans.
Acquired via online auction from a Las Vegas private collection by Artemis collection.
