Ceramics also allowed him to reconnect with ancient and popular traditions, as well as with the iconography and myths of the Mediterranean.\n\nAfter some experimentation at the beginning of the century, Picasso only devoted himself to ceramics from 1947 onward, in the Madoura studio in Vallauris. The artist then authorised Suzanne and Georges Rami to create limited-edition reproductions of some of his ceramics, covering his entire production between 1947 and 1971. These editions, which represent a continuation of his output, helped popularise his work.\n\nThis catalogue provides some keys to better understanding Picassos creative.
