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). Vallauris 1961.
A detail from the monumental painting "War and Peace" ("La Guerre et la Paix") on the vault of the Temple of Peace in Vallauris, 1961. The frenetic battle scene is rendered in a highly stylized manner, with a powerful figure lunging forward with a spear. The chaotic composition is a jumble of angular limbs, weapons, and bodies, including stylized horses and a horned, mask-like figure holding a dagger, conveying a sense of intense, violent conflict.
