In the early 1900s, Pablo Picasso moved between France and Spain before settling in Paris in 1904. There, he tried out with various of styles and produced his original ones which are reflected in his 'Blue' and 'Rose' periods. 

In 1907, he created/ a painting called, 'Les Demoiselles d'Avignon'. This painting is a revolutionary work that introduced a major new style which is Cubism. Picasso worked closely with a French artist, Georges Braque during the development of this style.

In 1937 , Picasso produced a painting called, 'Guernica' a painting that was inspired by the destruction of the town in northern Spain by German bombers during the Spanish Civil War. He supported the Republican government fighting General Francisco, and never returned to Spain after Franco's victory.

After that, from 1946 to his death, Picasso continued to produce a huge variety of work including paintings, sculptures, etchings and ceramics. During this period, he remained in Paris during German occupation. ]]> 2022-02-13 11:48:25 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044472636 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044474540 Picasso died on April 8, 1973 at the age of 91, in Mougins, France.

This was done through the characters overlapping and intersecting each other, destruction, violent death and mutilation. ]]> 2022-02-13 12:45:31 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044510991 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044521987 Balance :
There are 3 shapes in this artwork, 2 rectangles on both sides and a huge triangle in the middle of the artwork.

Movement & Rythem :
The audience's eyes would start from the left then to the right.

Emphasis, Contrast :
Picasso emphasizes the subject matter by using the use of colour and tones like grey and white. The background is mostly black which makes the grey and white subject matter stand out.

Pattern, unity :
The subject matters are looking up like as if there is hope in the sky. The artwork unites the subject by the subject matter looking up towards the light which is in the middle of the artwork.]]> 2022-02-13 13:01:09 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044521987 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044522509 Spanish Civil War, War]]> 2022-02-13 13:01:57 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044522509 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044522983  Oil on canvas, 349 × 776 cm]]> 2022-02-13 13:02:42 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044522983 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044526485 Bull, Horse, Lamp, Ceiling Light, Mother crying while holding her child who is dead, a soldier that is lying dead on the floor with a many scars on one of his hand and the other hand is holding a broken sword and has a disconnected leg, a woman reaching up to the sky, a woman's head that is connected to a building that is in fire, a woman that is dragging her injured leg while looking up towards the source of light.]]> 2022-02-13 13:07:14 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044526485 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044589102 - The bull at the top left of the artwork represents brutality and darkness. The bull's gaze is cold and dethatched. This bull might be representing Fascism or Francisco Franco. The tail of the bull represents the smoking remains of Guernica. 
- The woman below the bull is holding a dead child and she is screaming towards the heavens while her breasts that once fed her child are exposed. Her eyes are in the shape of tears. She is a secular virgin and child tainted by war.
- The dead soldier that is beneath the woman represents futility and hope. His disjointed parts are across the floor. His disjointed hand is holding a broken sword which represents failure from which grows a white flower. This flower symbolizes of remembrance and hope. In his other hand, there are scars which represents the ultimate sacrifice.
- In between the bull and horse, there is a dove with a pained expression and broken body which represents in Picasso point of view, that all the peace has been destroyed.
- The light bulb may represent the eye of god that is overlooking the chaos during war or it may represent the technology that destroyed Guernica.
- The screaming horse that is at the center of the artwork is collapsing due to his wound but its head is reaching upwards as it is struggling to live. Picasso painted a horse like this as he saw the horse as the people of Guernica.
- The woman that is trapped in the building at the right side of the artwork is pleading at the sky either to God or to the German planes to stop the destruction. Whereas behind her there are destructions of buildings due to burning.
- Below the burning woman there is woman that is holding onto her bleeding knee as she is trying to stop the blood with her hand. She is looking very hopeful towards the oil lamp. This is because the oil lamp is the main source of light, not the light bulb and the oil light represents hope and it is strong enough to shed light across the artwork. It also represents the spirit of the Spanish Republic.

This shows that the war was a chaotic time as there are many things going between the people of Guernica. The lines used in this artwork are mostly sharp lines which shows that it was an intense war. The shapes used are odd as they are not placed in a usual manner. For example, the eyes of the soldier and the legs of the woman at the bottom right of the artwork. It gives more emphasis towards the leg as it emphasis on the pain that she has to face due to her leg. The colour of the artwork used are basic white, grey and black as there is an absence of colour. ]]> 2022-02-13 14:36:35 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044599300 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044610019 Picasso learnt painting and drawing from his father when he was a child. When Picasso was 13 years old, his skill level surpassed his father's and soon, Picasso gave up in doing his schoolwork and focused more during his school days doodling in his notebooks. In 1985, Picasso was 14 years old and his family moved to Barcelona, Spain. That was where he applied to the city's prestigious School of Fine Arts. Even though the school only accepts students several years his seniors, Picasso's entrance exam was so amazing that he was granted an exception and was admitted to the school. Either ways, Picasso chafed at the School of Fine Arts strict rules and formalities and started skipping classes so that he could lurk around the streets of a Barcelona and sketch the city scenes that he observes. In 1897, Picasso moved to Madrid when he was 16 years old to attend the Royal Academy of San Fernando. Once again, Picasso skipped classes as he was frustrated with his school's singular focus on classical subjects and techniques. In 1899, Picasso moved back to Barcelona and fell in with a crowd of artists and intellectuals who made their headquarters at a café called El Quatre Gats. With this, Picasso was inspired by the anarchists and radicals he met there and proceeded on stopping from classical methods which he was trained. He began to experiment art and began to be innovative.]]> 2022-02-13 14:49:45 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044610019 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044612654 2022-02-13 14:52:50 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044612654 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044631146 2022-02-13 15:14:45 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044631146 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044632100 2022-02-13 15:15:41 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044632100 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044632335 2022-02-13 15:15:55 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044632335 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044632529 2022-02-13 15:16:10 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2044632529 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045803158 Oil on Canvas, 117.8x94x10.1 cm]]> 2022-02-14 09:21:45 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045803158 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045805816 The child is being greedy when it comes to food as maybe she is dying of hunger as he/she is devouring the food that is inside the bowl like as if he/she hasn't eaten for days.]]> 2022-02-14 09:23:31 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045805816 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045807722 A child scooping out with full of interest all the food in the bowl, white dress and scarf that the child is wearing. ]]> 2022-02-14 09:24:53 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045807722 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045820552
There are more subject matters on the left side then the right side. The audience's eyes would start from the cup that is one the white cloth table as it has the most number of colours on it. Next, the eyes would go to the most contrasting subject matter which looks like a clump of ice cream. Above that there is a bowl that is tilted towards  the child as the child is digging something out of it. Lastly the eyes would go to the child itself.
In this artwork there is a pattern of the colour blue and wavy lines which gives the artwork a smooth and cozy look. There is emphasis in this artwork in terms of colour. As you can see, there is a light source coming from the top left corner of the artwork. This allows the artist to make use of this source of light to paint white paint on the child and the items in front of it. With this colour it gives a contrast between the child and the background [ white - blue ]]]> 2022-02-14 09:33:19 UTC https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045820552 babyqyrahaniz https://padlet.com/babyqyrahaniz/4rgnf5vc1rzjz4t4/wish/2045836438 The space in this artwork is spacious as behind the child which is the right hand side of the artwork is empty whereas the space on the left hand side of the artwork is spacious but not as spacious on the right side of the artwork as there are subject matter or items on it.
