Artists aimed at making their works easier to be understood,
so that they included some elements that would be
identified such as musical instruments. During this period
some realist elements appeared too, as printing
characters, numbers, newspaper pieces, or labels. They

materials by imitating wood or marble.

The painting is crammed with symbolism and they wouldn’t be put there haphazardly as Picasso may suggest.
He did hundreds of sketches before making this painting. Picasso had many famous quotes...one of them being,
“Art is to be looked at. Not talked about.”, so he was pretty tight lipped about explaining his mindset. Some
symbols are pretty constant with historical paintings and previous Picasso paintings.

• In most traditions, birds have a predominantly positive connotation.
• "Birds symbolize the power that helps people to speak reflectively and leads
them to think out many things in advance before they take action. Just as
birds are lifted up into the air by their feathers and can remain wherever
they wish, the soul in the body is elevated by thought and spreads its wings
everywhere." They represent the human desire to escape gravity, to reach
the level of the angel. The bird is often the disembodied human soul, free of
its physical constrictions.
The broken soldier
• Perhaps these flowers are a sign of the idealism that this war
was all about. It seems as if those flowers represent the last
hope of the man, the last beautiful thing he will see, and, by
holding on to them in death, they seem to tell people that,
even to the end, this man believed in the war he was fighting.
