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 work "War and Peace" ("La Guerre et la Paix"), painted on the vault of the Temple of Peace in Vallauris, 1961. The Cubist-style composition shows a central, stylized horse-like creature, its white body fragmented into geometric planes and sharp angles to convey turmoil. To its left appears a human figure with simplified features and an open hand. The stark palette of black, white, and gray creates a powerful and somber mood of chaos and suffering.
