Picasso's definitive stay in the South of France coincides wioth his encounter and start of the collaboration with ceramist Suzanne Ramié of the Madoura studio in Vallauris. For Picasso ceramics are a way to return to the themes of his Mediterranean childhood, and fauns populate his works of the time among other subjects.
This joyous depiction of a singing faun clearly shows the influence Spanish ceramics had on the artist in its colour-scheme.
