Pablo Picasso and Guernica

Do you remember when we visited the Reina Sofía museum and we saw Guernica?

In Social Science we have been learning about contemporary history and Guernica was mentioned but do you really understand what it symbolises?

Next week you are going to produce your own A4 version of Guernica in Art, but before you do that you need to take a look at these videos. The first one explains the symbolism that Picasso included in his work of art:

Here you can play a game to find out where the main symbols are in Guernica...
