Ποιειν Και Πραττειν - create and do

Atelier in 2009


Picasso's atelier

The floor space explains in part why the canvas for Guernica was 7,8 x 3,5 m. It just covered the surface of the floor. To the right were benches with a table running along the wall. Above the table just as on the other walls were Picasso's works - sketches he used while developing his idea for Guernica.

 

The poster can be seen at the back of the gallery.
