Cercle au visage (A.R. 632) is a ceramic plaque by Pablo Picasso, produced circa 1966 at the Madoura pottery workshop in Vallauris, France. Executed in glazed earthenware in a circular format, the work features a stylized face rendered with economical line work and strong graphic presence. The piece was issued in a numbered edition of approximately 500 examples, typical of Madoura’s late-period ceramic productions. Created in southern France, Cercle au visage illustrates Picasso’s late-career exploration of simplified portraiture and geometric formats through ceramics.
