Pablo Picasso was an unrivaled titan of 20th-century art. He influenced and collaborated with such fellow creative geniuses as Henri Matisse and Georges Braque, and the works of his Blue Period and his Rose Period are familiar to even the most casual museum-goer.
In politics, Picasso took an unwavering stand against fascism in his homeland. After a visit in 1934, he vowed not to return to Spain so long as the dictator General Francisco Franco was alive, and he never went home again. In joining the French Communist Party, he declared: I have always been an exile, now I am one no longer; until the time when Spain may finally receive me, the French Communist Party has opened its arms to me.

Description
A striking and expansive two section 1814 case map of South America issued by Pierre Lapie. Appearing at the height of the Spanish American Wars of Independence (1808 - 1833) map covers all of South America and serves as a general update on the groundbreaking cartography of Juan de La Cruz Cano y Olmedilla. Although titled in both England and French, the content is entirely in French. The map features striking overall engraving, but the allegorical cartouche is of special note, being the work of legendary engraver Jean-Michel Moreau. The map was initially engraved during the 1807 French invasion of Spain, but not published until nearly 7 years later, in 1814, following War of the Sixth Coalition (March 1813 - May 1814) and Napoleon s exile to Elba.
