It was, in fact, during the era of these first collective exhibitions of Cubism that Marcoussis met Apollinaire and Braque, who introduced him to Picasso. ” Shipping required; up to 5 lithographs in your package for €14.76 (including tax) in Metropolitan France, and €29.64 (including tax) for Europe
