Picasso's ceramics express the restless, fluid ease of his late years. In 1946, Pablo Picasso visited an exhibition of ceramics in Vallauris, an area in southeastern France known for its many potteries. He would move to the region soon after, establishing a steady relationship with the Madoura ceramics workshop in 1948. It was a watershed moment for Picasso, who throughout his long life was always on the lookout for new artistic challenges in all conceivable materials. Picasso's experiments with various ceramic materials, oxides and glazes would produce a huge body of work: some 4,000 ceramic objects bearing the motifs of animals, fauns and women evoked through Picasso's whimsical, elegant handling of shape and line. This major body of work in ceramics forms a lesser-known but highly original part of the oeuvre of an artist who was constantly reinventing himself and his forms. This book presents more than 150 of Picasso's most important ceramic works reproduced in beautiful four-color printing, as well as new texts about the artist's pieces in this medium. The book also contains a detailed glossary of ceramic terms and a review of the forms most commonly used by Picasso. The only book in print on this beautiful and highly imaginative part of Picasso's oeuvre, “Picasso: Ceramics” is an essential volume.

Elisabeth Wandel (January 14, 1850 - 1926), was a Danish artist who studied under Carl Thomsen and P.S. Krøyer. Her home was open to artists as her husband was a keen patron of the arts and collector. Their son, Sigurd Wandel, also became an artist and a professor at the Academy.
Wandel mostly did portraits - both of their circle of friends and of ‘common folk’ subjects. She also did a few landscape paintings.
