Thus depicted Picasso: the joint-German/Italian bombing of a village in 1937--proving ground for events following Sept. 1939. But generally I share--as icon--the 'motorized cavalry' sturm und drang as cited by others. ie ground action not unlike a day at a NASCAR event/with guns? Vroom Vroom ... Aieeeeee! ...
