Francisco Pizarro, Entry Into Cuzco, 1533

Francisco Pizarro González (1471 or 1476 - June 26, 1541) was a Spanish conquistador. Pizarro undertook two expeditions to conquer the Incan Empire in 1524 and in 1526. Both failed as a result of native hostilities, bad weather, and lack of provisions. In 1528, he reached northern Peru and found the natives rich with precious metals. He returned to Spain and appealed directly to King Charles I. He received a license for the expedition and authority over any lands conquered during the venture. He was joined by family and friends, and the expedition left Panama in 1530. Under his leadership, the Incan ruler Atahualpa was executed and the Spanish took control of the Incan capital of Cuzco. In 1535, Pizarro founded the city of Lima. Quarrels between Pizarro and his comrade-in-arms Diego Almagro culminated in the Battle of Las Salinas. Almagro was captured and executed, and on June 26th, 1541, his son assassinated Pizarro in Lima. Engraving taken from page 133 of "The Land of the Incas and the City of the Sun; or the story of Francisco Pizarro and the conquest of Peru" by W.H. Davenport Adams, 1885.

Título:
Francisco Pizarro, Entry Into Cuzco, 1533
Descripción:
Traducción automática: Francisco Pizarro González (1471 o 1476 - 26 de junio de 1541) fue un conquistador español. Pizarro emprendió dos expediciones para conquistar el Imperio Inca en 1524 y 1526. Ambas fracasaron como resultado de las hostilidades nativas, el mal tiempo y la falta de provisiones. En 1528 llegó al norte del Perú y encontró a los nativos ricos en metales preciosos. Regresó a España y apeló directamente al rey Carlos I. Recibió licencia para la expedición y autoridad sobre las tierras conquistadas durante la empresa. Se le unieron familiares y amigos y la expedición salió de Panamá en 1530. Bajo su liderazgo, el gobernante inca Atahualpa fue ejecutado y los españoles tomaron el control de la capital inca de Cuzco. En 1535, Pizarro fundó la ciudad de Lima. Las disputas entre Pizarro y su compañero de armas Diego Almagro culminaron en la Batalla de Las Salinas. Almagro fue capturado y ejecutado, y el 26 de junio de 1541 su hijo asesinó a Pizarro en Lima. Grabado tomado de la página 133 de "La Tierra de los Incas y la Ciudad del Sol; o la historia de Francisco Pizarro y la conquista del Perú" por WH Davenport Adams, 1885
