In 1961, Picasso was 80 years old, recently married to Jacqueline Roque, and living in the Château de Vauvenargues in southern France. This period marked a more introspective and symbolic phase of his work, with a focus on simplified, expressive forms. Unlike the original 1949 lithograph (realistic and detailed), this 1961 dove is more abstract and dynamic. It carries an olive branch in its beak – a universal peace symbol. The drawing reflects Picasso’s late style: essential, direct, and full of meaning with minimal strokes. Although Picasso's dove was adopted by the Communist-led Peace Movement after WWII, this 1961 version seems more universal and personal. Picasso often gave such doves as gifts or used them to support peace causes during the Cold War.
