Mona Lisa was painted by Leonardo da Vinci in 1507. It shows a young woman who is smiling. Its shape is complex . The painting is realistic.
If you look at her eyes and nose ,you will think she is smiling,but if you look at her mouth, you will think she isn't smiling . It is painted in so many color.
In Mona Lisa, the painter's happiness is expressed so strongly that we feel it too. In my opinion, this makes the painting beautiful.

Gernika was painted by Pablo Piccasso in June of 1937. At the painting, uses a palette of grey, black, and white and is one of the most moving and powerful anti-war paintings in the history of Spain. At the painting, is a composition of a gored horse, a bull and a lot of flames. The large mural of Piccasso, shows the suffering of people wrenched by violence.
The painting, looks like, a within of a room, where at an open end on the left, a wide bull stands over a woman grieving over a dead child in her arms. At the center, is a horse falling in agony and under the horse, is a dead, apparently dismembered soldier. At the open palm of the dead soldier, is a stigma, a symbol of martyrdom derived from the stigmata of Christ.
There´s a frightened female figure too, and he is floated into the room through a window. Her arm, carries a flame lamp. The lamp, is positioned very close to the bulb, and is a symbol of hope.
In my opinion, the painted was disgusted, because it wasn´t so easy to paint the tragedy that happened the 26 of April of 1937.

"Guernica"
Guernica was painted by the famous internationally known Pablo Ruiz Picasso between May and June of 1937. It is an abstract and non realistic style, painted with oil on canvas. There are some people and animals suffering in it.
It looks like they are entrenched in a type of barn trying to hide and keep safe. They look very frightened and desesperate. There is a pregnant woman and a soldier with a broken sword on the hand shouting. There is a lamp above them and there is "the piece pigeon" painted in black.
Picasso was trying to express the suffering of the people and he wanted to draw attention about it.

El Guernica
One of Pablo Picasso's most well-known paintings was commissioned by the Spanish government because of the bombing in Guernica. The gray tones are explained because the first news that Picasso had of the bombing was through the newspaper. It is said that in 1940 a German officer asked Picasso if it was he who had done that. The painter replied: "No, it was you." It's in the Reina Sofia of Madrid.

THE GIOCONDA
The Gioconda also known as the Mona Lisa was painted by Leonardo da Vinchi at the biginning of the 16th century. It this portrait shows as a lady that is sitting in an armchair and resting her arms. In it´s hands and eyes you can see the especial characteristics of the painter, playing with light and shadows to give volume to the painting.
People think that background of the portrait was given to the inspiration for the Alps, on their trip to Milan. In the middle of the landscape you can see a bridge. We can also see that the model lacks eyebrows and eyelashes. The left arm rests on one of the arms of the armchair. The right hand rests on the left. This posture transmits an impression of serenity and that the person portrayed dominates their feelings.
The Gioconda, is a very beautiful portrait, were the beauty of the women is expressed. In my opinion it´s an interesting painting without taking into account that is the most famous painting of the world.

"GUERNICA"
Guernica was painted in 1937, which by the way took over 35 days to complete. This painting is representational, with a slight touch of realistc features within it. It stands at 3.49 meters tall, and 7.76 meters wide, becoming one of the worlds largest canvas-paintings ever. This large creation shows the agony and the suffering of the people who were unfortunate enough to be victims of such a crime. In the mural, the most distinctive characters are a horse, a bull and villagers surrounded by flames. Picasso has used both sharp and precise linings, as well as curved and soft ends, giving the viewer a sense of innocence. The only colours used in Guernica are: black, grey and white. These dull colours give the observer a feeling of both sadness and hope, which contrast beautifully in my opinion.
In Guernica, Picasso's sadness and anger towards this occurrence is anything but absent, and his ability to express these emotions have captivated many hearts all around the world, including mine. I believe, that part of the reason why the famous bombing finally got recognised, was Picasso's ability to transmit such a powerful message to the world, with just a couple of paint brushes, some paint, a canvas and a little bit of inspiration.

The Guernica
Guernica was painted by Pablo Picasso in 1937. It shows some men and women suffering because the Dictador Franco has bombed the city of Gernika. The painting is abstract and with dull colour such as black, grey and white.
You can see a dead solidier at the bottom of the painting, there is a woman crying and looking at the sky because her child has died during the bombing, at the rigth side of the painting there is a woman that is dying in her house which is on fire, it is also visual a woman looking outside of the window looking for anyone of her family who may have survived the bombing; animals are also seen in the picture as there is a cow in the picture and a horse which is linked to the newspaper that "helped" to the bombing to be noticed around the world. All of the picture is drawn in really dark and dull colours, such as, black , grey or white.
IN the Guernica, the painter´s sadness is expresed so hard that you can feel it.In my opinion, this makes people recocnise the horror which all of the people from gernika felt that day of 1937.
