| Guernica by Pablo Picasso |
This painting by Pablo Picasso is his response to the
horrific bombing by German and Italian forces during the Spanish Civil War in
1937.
During the occupation of Paris during World War II Picasso
kept a large photo of the painting on his studio wall. At some point a Nazi officer saw it and said
to Picasso, “So….you did that?”
Picasso answer, “No, YOU did that.”
Here's
a great PBS page with information about this important work of art.
