Jul 1, 2019 at 16:00 comment added user267839 @SamirCanning: yes, you refer to the theory of Lie groups,right? There you can endow the tangent space at neutral element $e$ with Lie algebra structure and the exp-map provides a map from the tangent space at $e$ (= induced Lie algebra) to the group back. On the other hand the exponential sequence induces a map $H^1(X, O_X) \to H^1(O, O_X^*)$ where the right object is the Picard group. So intuitively $H^1(X, O_X)$ "sits" on the place of tangent space. Is this the picture you refer?
