EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph depicts a breathtaking view of the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina, as it appeared in the mid-19th century. The image is taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, a significant ethnographic and anthropological work published in Meissen, Germany, between 1835 and 1840. Buenos Aires, the capital city of Argentina, is shown in all its splendor, with its bustling port and vibrant urban landscape. The Riachuelo River, which runs through the city, is visible in the foreground, with ships anchored at the docks and people going about their daily activities along the waterfront. The city's architecture is a blend of European and colonial influences, with grand buildings, churches, and fortifications visible amidst the winding streets and bustling markets. The people of Buenos Aires are depicted in their traditional costumes, engaging in various activities such as fishing, farming, and trading. This lithograph offers a unique glimpse into the history and culture of Buenos Aires during a time of significant transformation. The city was undergoing rapid growth and modernization, and this image captures the vibrant energy and diversity of its people and customs. The handcoloring technique used in this lithograph adds an extra layer of detail and depth to the image, bringing the scene to life and making it a valuable historical document. Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures was a groundbreaking work in the field of ethnography and anthropology, and this image of Buenos Aires is a testament to its enduring significance in the study of global history and culture.
