Picasso
The painting Guernica by Picasso is a painting that sums up everything that was going on when Germany bombed Guernica. In this painting people are lying on the ground and screaming, everything is very crowded and busy, The color consists of only grey white and black which I think expresses the mood and emotion going on. Something that really stands out to me in this painting is a big light towards the top left corner. I think Picasso was trying to show how the spotlight was shining on the bombing of Guernica and also that the German bombers wanted the whole world know what was going on, and what was happening. Something else that stands out to me is this person is looking out their window with a candle in there hand. The person looks scared and horrified and confused at whats going on. This painting really shows a disaster and chaos.
