　　Pablo Picasso was born in Spain in 1881 and died in France in 1973. He was one of the most important artists of the twentieth century.

　　Picasso's early paintings were realistic, but later he began to look at things in new ways. He experimented with shapes and colors. Soon the shapes and colors. became more important to him than the real things in his pictures.

　　Picasso painted many important pictures, but his most famous is a very large painting called Guernica. Guernica is a small town in Spain. It was bombed(attacked with bombs) and ruined(毁灭) in 1937, during the Spanish Civil War. Many people died.

　　Picasso was angry. He wanted to show that war is terrible. The painting has only three colors－black, white, and gray. It is abstract(expressing the artist's ideas and feelings about certain things), but you can see some real things in it. On the left side are a mother and her dead baby, a bull and a horse, and a dead man with a broken sword(剑) and a flower. On the right are three people. One of them has a lamp. They are sad and helpless.

　　Along with the realistic things, there are many symbols in the painting. Symbols are things that represent(describe) ideas. No one knows what all the symbols mean. They mean different things to different people. But everyone agrees that this painting shows the horror(sth. that makes people very afraid) of war.

　　Guernica is in the Prado Museum in Madrid.
