Description
This well-conceived ink drawing is in a theme that consumed Picasso at the time. There is one similar to it entitled Women with a Dove, 1955 in the Pompidou Museum of the same subject matter and similar composition. Picasso responded to the war and its atrocities in his art. The scope ranges from Picasso as a history painter and his key motif of the Dove of Peace – one of the most important symbols of hope and the most famous emblem of the Peace Movement – to his still-lifes, which contain subtle and hidden commentaries on global events, as well as hints of Picasso’s political attitude.
