Visage d’Homme (A.R. 203) is a ceramic plaque by Pablo Picasso, produced circa 1953 at the Madoura pottery workshop in Vallauris, France. Executed in glazed earthenware, the work presents a stylized male face rendered with confident line work and expressive surface treatment characteristic of Picasso’s ceramic language. The piece was issued in a numbered edition of approximately 50 examples, consistent with Madoura’s mid-period productions. Created in southern France, Visage d’Homme reflects Picasso’s sustained exploration of portraiture through the tactile and graphic possibilities of ceramics.
