During the 20th century, Pablo Picasso had a huge influence on cubism. One of Pablo Picasso's important pieces the, Guernica, is an anti-war piece. As Picasso's quote suggests, Guernica is primarily a war painting, offering a visual account of the devastating and chaotic impact of war on both men and women, in this case specifically on civilian life and communities.        In the Guernica, several victims are shown from the bombing, horrified looks from the ones still alive seeing that some are already dead. one victim is layed out in the foreground of the painting, it shows us that it us a corpse, surrounded by living victims with faces of agony. Pablo Picasso used this piece to show viewers of this piece what war has down to victims, ruining lives of families and innocent children. 


    Also what we discussed earlier in the week in class about the red poppies, I looked up more information about it and there is a day in Australia, Remembrance Day. The flower is used a remembrance from all the soldiers that had past away. Each soldier wears a poppy flower in there pocket. The red poppies were among the first to flower in the devastated battlefields of northern       France and Belgium in the First World War. In soldiers’ folklore, the vivid red of the poppy came 
from the blood of their comrades soaking the ground. This idea came alive in 1921.
