delayed its transfer until 1981. Finally, Picasso’s former lawyer gave his assent to the transfer.

On October 25—the 100th anniversary of Picasso’s birth—Guernica went on exhibit to

through a metal detector to view the paintings. Because the painting had been damaged in
its years of travel, curators at the Prado said it was unlikely that Guernica would ever go on
tour again.

Spain until democratic liberties were restored in the country. Its eventual return to Spain
in 1981–eight years after Picasso’s death–was celebrated as a moral endorsement of Spain’s
young democracy.
Early in the Spanish civil war, Spain’s leftist Republican government commissioned Picasso
to paint a mural for the 1937 Paris International Exposition. Working in Paris, Picasso read
in horror of the April 1937 German bombing of Guernica, a Basque town that had sided with
the Republicans against General Francisco Franco’s right-wing Nationalist forces. Guernica
was well behind the battle lines, but Franco authorized the attack as a means of intimidating
his foes in the region. The attack was later admitted to be an experiment by the German
Luftwaffe in carpet bombing–air raids that targeted civilians and civilian infrastructure. More
than 1,000 residents of Guernica were killed in the three-hour attack.
Outraged by the brutality of the act, Picasso seized on the bombing as the subject of his
mural, which he completed in just three weeks. The enormous painting, which measures
11.5 feet by 25.5 feet, is a savage indictment of man’s inhumanity to man. Painted in desolate
tones of black, white, and gray, the painting shows a gored horse, a screaming mother holding
a dead child, a bewildered bull, and other nightmarish images that effectively evoke the
horror of war.
Guernica was exhibited in the Spanish Pavilion at the Paris International Exposition and
in 1939 was sent to New York on a tour for the benefit of the Spanish Refugee Committee.
When World War II broke out later that year, Picasso requested that Guernica and a number
of his other works be held at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) on extended loan. After
the war, most of these works were returned to Europe, but Picasso asked that Guernica and
its preliminary studies be kept by MoMA until the “reestablishment of public liberties” in
Spain. The painting was occasionally lent to European museums at the request of Picasso.
Francisco Franco ruled over Spain as dictator for the rest of Picasso’s life, and the artist
never returned to his native country. In 1967, Franco restored some liberties, and in 1968 his
government made an effort to recover Guernica. Picasso refused, clarifying that the painting
would not be returned until democracy was reestablished. In 1973, Picasso died in France at
the age of 91. Two years later, Franco died and was succeeded as Spanish leader by King Juan
