Pablo Picasso’s Guernica 1937
Thank you to Graham Lawler from the Design Center for pointing me to this...
Guernica is a painting by Pablo Picasso, depicting the bombing of Guernica, Basque Country, by German and Italian warplanes on April 26, 1937, during the Spanish Civil War.
In an act with extraordinary historical resonance, United Nations officials covered up a tapestry reproduction of Pablo Picasso’s anti-war mural “Guernica” during US Secretary of State Colin Powell’s February 5 presentation of the American case for war against Iraq.
