    Pablo Picasso painted "Guernica" in 1937 to depict the bombing of Guernica, a city in Spain, by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War. The massive black-and-white oil painting measures over 7 feet wide and 3 feet tall and depicts the suffering of people, animals, and the city under bombardment through angular figures and distorted forms. It has become a timeless representation of the horrors of war and is on permanent display at the Museo Reina Sofia in Madrid.
