Monument to Blas Infante by Jesús Martinez, 1983
Calle Cuarteles
Málaga, March 2024
“Blas Infante Pérez de Vargas (5 July 1885 – 11 August 1936) was an Andalusian socialist politician, Georgist, writer, historian and musicologist. He is considered the ‘father of Andalusia’ by Andalusian nationalists. He initiated an Andalusian regionalist assembly in Ronda in 1918; the assembly adopted a charter based on the autonomist ‘Constitución Federal de Antequera’ written in 1883 during the First Spanish Republic. It also embraced the current flag and emblem as national symbols, designed by Infante himself based on various historic Andalusian standards. During the Second Spanish Republic, the ‘Andalucismo’ was represented by the ‘Junta Liberalista’, a federalist political party led by Infante.” (Blas Infante, Wikipedia)
