Picasso's Powerful Anti-War Artwork
"Guernica" is an influential and iconic painting created by the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso in 1937. The painting is named after the town of Guernica in the Basque Country, Spain, which was heavily bombed and devastated during the Spanish Civil War. This antiwar piece is 11 feet tall and almost 26 feet wide. A mother holding her dead child in her arms is one of the painting's central and most poignant figures, representing the anguish and helplessness of innocent victims.
