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.
Four visitors observe the monumental "War and Peace" ("La Guerre et la Paix") drawing on the vaulted ceiling of the Temple of Peace in Vallauris, 1961. Seated on a low stone ledge, they gaze up at the stark, modernist composition of fragmented, light-colored figures on a dark background. The chaotic scene, which includes a distressed horse and dynamic human forms, is illuminated from below, casting the spectators in partial shadow.
