Piedra Alta: The Historic Site of Uruguay's Independence Agreement in 1825 This 19th-century engraving, titled "Piedra Alta," offers a glimpse into the rich history of Uruguay. Located in the department of Florida, this historic site holds significant importance as the place where the country's independence was agreed upon on August 25, 1825. The engraving, skillfully created by Carretero, is a contemporary representation of the age-old altar, which stands as a symbol of Uruguayan fatherland. The rocky outcrop, known as Piedra Alta, serves as the backdrop to this historic moment. The rugged landscape, dotted with trees and rolling hills, adds to the serene and picturesque setting. The engraving, taken from "The Spanish and American Illustration," published in 1876, showcases the formation of this Latin American nation. The historic site, steeped in history, is a testament to the courage and determination of the Uruguayan people during the Spanish colonial era. The engraving, beautifully colored, transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the historic Congress that took place at this site. The significance of Piedra Alta in Uruguayan history cannot be overstated, making it a must-visit destination for anyone interested in the country's heritage and the broader history of Spanish America. This engraving is a reminder of the important role that historic sites play in preserving the past and shaping our understanding of the present. The image invites us to reflect on the sacrifices and triumphs of those who came before us and to appreciate the unique geography and culture of Uruguay.
