Original: Guernica in Reina Sofia museum in Madrid
A COPY of Picasso's anti-war painting Guernica which is normally on show at the United Nations in New York is being installed at the Whitechapel Gallery.
The full-size tapestry version will be on display when the gallery re-opens to the public on 5 April after a £13.5million redevelopment.
The original work was seen at the Whitechapel in 1939 in an exhibition on the Spanish Civil War.
