Hibou Mat (Matt Owl)

A striking rectangular earthenware dish by Pablo Picasso, "Hibou Mat (Matt Owl)" showcases the artist's playful exploration of ceramics as a creative medium. The white earthenware surface is animated with a boldly rendered owl, painted in characteristic colors that reflect Picasso's expressive and instinctive approach to form and line. A partial brushed glaze on the underside adds a subtle contrast of texture, highlighting the artist's deliberate attention to every facet of the piece.
