Picasso: The ultimate painter of war?

Interesting. I would argue that these are not paintings of war but rather of citizens being murdered by their own nation, a recurring theme throughout history. War is conflict between two armed entities. I see none of that here

PO1 Tony Holland Quite a Unique Artist and Most Definitely a Product of His Time. War has always been Excellent Material for Artists from the Romantic, "Patriotic" Glorification to those that Lean More to the Realistic Horrors.
