Pablo Picasso was a Spanish artist who revolutionized painting, drawing, sculpture, and ceramics (pottery). Picasso's portrayal of the agony of Spain's struggle and suffering against fascism in Guernica is considered his strongest work. This painting was inspired by Picasso's horror at the Nazi German bombing of Gernika, Spain on April 26, 1937 during the Spanish Civil War.
