Statue created by artist Anthony Padgett depicting a young Picasso holding a dove of peace. The statue is a tribute to peace, to Picasso (who attended the 2nd World Peace Congress in Sheffield in 1950), to the International Brigade volunteers from South Yorkshire, to the Basque children who were given sanctuary by the people of Sheffield, and to all Sheffield’s workers and citizens. Unveiled in Weston Park (Sheffield S10 2TP) on 12 April 2025 by the Lord Mayor of Sheffield Jayne Dunn.
