War and Peace ("La Guerre et la Paix") drawing on the vault of the Temple of Peace (Temple de la Paix, or Chapelle de la paix). A dove of peace, superimposed on the face of Françoise Gilot, on a shield of a young man. Vallauris 1961.
A detail from the “War and Peace” mural on the vault of the Temple of Peace in Vallauris, 1961. This stylized dove, its face superimposed on that of Françoise Gilot, is rendered in bold, geometric black lines against a textured white shield. With wings raised in a sharp “V,” the central image is contained within a frame of rough white brushstrokes set against a dark, abstract background, creating a composition of stark, graphic contrast.
