"The first critical examination of Picasso's use of religious imagery and the religious
import of many of his works with secular subject matter. Though Picasso was an avowed
aetheist, his work employs themes of spirituality and, often, traditional religious
iconography. In five engagingly written, accessible chapters, the authors address
Picasso's cryptic 1930 painting of the Crucifixion ; the artist's early life in the
Catholic church ; elements of transcendence in Guernica ; Picasso's later, fraught
relationship with the church, which commissioned him to paint murals for the Temple
of Peace chapel in France ; and the centrality of religious themes and imagery in
bullfighting, the subject of countless Picasso drawings and paintings."--Book jacket
