Picasso's Sketch of Guernica

Venue: World Exposition Museum in Zone D

In 1937, the Spanish government invited famed artist Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) to paint a mural for the Spain Pavilion at the Paris Expo of that same year. Picasso painted Guernica, a depiction of atrocities during the Spanish Civil War, which was still raging at the time. One of Picasso's sketches of this famous work is on display at the Expo.
