Picasso’s ‘Guernica’ masterpiece can finally be photographed

The Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid has lifted its ban on photographing Picasso’s ‘Guernica’, allowing visitors to take pictures of the renowned masterpiece. However, the use of flash, tripods, and selfie sticks remains restricted to preserve the 25-foot oil painting. The museum hopes that this change will attract a younger audience and enhance the viewing experience. Museums typically ban photography to preserve artwork, maintain a controlled environment, and encourage visitors to engage with the art.
