Spanish Cvil War


Spanish Civil War
"Pablo Picasso's Guernica is a work of art and not propaganda."
Propaganda is some sort of advertising to influence people to believe or think something.
The painting Guernica symbolizies about of thing that are happening during the Spnaish civil
war.The painting shows people, animals, and buildings wrenched by the violence and chaos of
the bombing, as well as the outline of a skull formed by various objects. This large canvas
embodies for many the inhumanity, brutality and hopelessness of war, and the cruelty of
bombing civilians. The choice to paint in black and white without color contrasts the screaming
intensity of the scene.
