From his first visit to Vallauris, also known as "the town of a hundred potters", Pablo Picasso became fascinated by the freedom and expressiveness of ceramics. To satisfy his insatiable creativity, the artist began a collaboration with the Ramié couple, founders of the Atelier Madoura, in 1947, which would last for over 20 years. Through the exploration of this new medium, the painter transcribed his most emblematic subjects, creating a marvelous universe of shapes and textures.
