3. Bottles, glasses and violins
Bottles, glasses and violins further show the neglect of objective reproduction. During this period, the images in his works, whether still life, scenery or characters, were completely decomposed, which made the audience not know much about them. Although every painting has a title, it is difficult for people to find objects related to the title. Those decomposed shapes and backgrounds blend with each other, so that the whole picture is covered with blocks of different shapes interwoven with vertical, oblique and horizontal lines. In this complex network structure, images only emerge slowly, but can be dissolved in complex blocks immediately. The role of color is minimized here. There seems to be only some monotonous black, white, gray and brown in the painting. In fact, what the painter wants to show is only the structure composed of lines, shapes and shapes, and the tension emitted by this structure.

I always stay in the real situation. " This may also be an important reason why he chose to paint guernica. However, the expression of reality in his paintings is completely different from traditional realism. The rich symbolic meaning in his paintings is hard to find in ordinary realistic works. Picasso himself explained the symbolic significance of this painting, saying that the bull symbolizes rape, the injured horse symbolizes suffering Spain, and the shining lights symbolize light and hope.
