"Guernica" has to do with the fallout from the Spanish Civil War, not WWII. The fact that Spain was in such disarray after their own civil war is one of the primary reasons that it had little, if anything, to do with the Second World War. So, unfortunately, the painting has nothing to do with Adolph Hitler. (If anything, it is an indictment of Francisco Franco's regime.) Also, the painting is from 1937, two years before Hitler took any military offensive whatsoever.
Whenever someone mentions this painting, I always automatically say, "Take that, Guernica!" They think I'm referring to the subject matter of the painting.
It's just you. Franklin isn't so much evil, he's just nuts. He's similar to charecters like Oscar Leroy from Corner Gas, and Arthur Spooner from The King of Queens.
You see children, art doesn't have to actually be any good in order for it to be considered great art. In order for something to be great art, it simply need be an object of some kind made by someone that can convince people that they are an "artist". Jackson Pollock, Hurst and Andy Warhol are classic examples of this.
It's not famous just because it's drawn in an artistic way, it's famous because it represents the bombing of the town of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War by the German Luftwaffe. It shows all the chaos and movement during the bombing, which makes it interesting to both historians and artists alike. It also helps remind us of what it really means to bomb innocent civilians, and many good lessons can be learned from reflecting on it.
That wasn't Alice. Remember he got married to a Mexican woman in a episode who said she going to divorce him and take half his money. That was his second divorce
It ends with the precise representation of pure joy on that cartoon crazy man's face. I'd love to do something similar with my Focus and an Anne Geddes print.

Guernica is so overrated, like almost all art.
You see children, art doesn't have to actually be any good in order for it to be considered great art.
