For Pablo Neruda, this pipe was associated with an effort he made at the end of the 1930s alongside his literary work. After the Spanish Civil War, thousands of refugees were living in camps in France under harsh conditions. Pablo Neruda was appointed by the president of Chile, Pedro Aguirre Cerda, to help them get to Chile. On 3 September 1939, the steamer Winnipeg arrived at Valparaiso, Chile. Neruda used to smoke this pipe in those days. He called his achievement his “greatest poem” and preserved the pipe with great care as a memory.
The pipe was donated to the Nobel Prize Museum by the Pablo Neruda Foundation in 2019. - Pristagare
