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 "War and Peace" ("La Guerre et la Paix") mural, painted on the vault of the Temple of Peace in Vallauris, 1961. Executed in a style reminiscent of Cubism, the black-and-white composition is a dynamic arrangement of fragmented figures and objects with bold outlines. In this section, two prominent wheel-like structures dominate the lower half, alongside splayed hands emerging from an amorphous shape. The paneled surface reveals a rough, textured quality with visible brushstrokes.
