Lot Essay

Picasso’s connection to the mysterious owl creature was more than just symbolic—the surfaces of these owl vases allowed him to explore the ceramic medium in a very painterly manner. Observe the way the ruffling feathers of these birds are depicted in this piece; different types of glazes have been used—one matte, one gloss; along with thick gouging techniques to create textural complexity and variety on multiple levels.
