Chouetton (A.R. 135) is a ceramic sculpture by Pablo Picasso, produced circa 1951 at the Madoura pottery workshop in Vallauris, France. Modeled in earthenware with painted and glazed decoration, the work depicts an owl—a recurring motif in Picasso’s ceramics that blends humor, symbolism, and simplified form. The piece was issued in a limited edition of approximately 200 examples, reflecting the more restrained production scale of Picasso’s early Madoura period. Created in Vallauris, Chouetton exemplifies Picasso’s transformation of traditional ceramic techniques into expressive modern sculpture.
