Gernica

[Alan Pearce]

As I entered the northern town of Gernica, I saw a large replica beside the road of the famous Picasso painting "Gernica". Does anyone know if this replica is the same size as the original, which is on display in the Museo Reina Sofia in Madrid?

Having seen both the replica in Guernica and the original at the Reina Sophia, I would say that they are about the same size. It is a remarkable work of art and seeing the original in Madrid was a memorable experience.

It was shown on a documentary on the BBC recently and they said it was near enough an exact sized copy.

Thank you both.
