Pablo Picasso Dancers, 1956
Featuring a stunning variant of movement and form, Pablo Picasso has transformed the art of the textured surface of this ceramic plate by depicting a series of four dancing characters. Achieving a lightness of body and spirit, these four dancers appear to float across the composition. This wonderful work relays a sense of unity and joy, as the figures clasp hands, engaging in a moment of carefree fancy.
