FINE MAPS & PLATES OF THE RIO DE LA PLATE REGION
Azara (1746-1821), a military officer and naturalist, was appointed to a delegation to settle the boundary dispute between Spain and Portugal in the Rio de la Plata region and spent the twenty years 1781 to 1801 in the region, during which time he studied and documented the area's geography, animals and native peoples. He published his Voyage in Madrid in Spanish after his return to Europe with 4 octavo volumes of text and this accompanying folio atlas volume. The atlas includes folding maps of South America, Paraguay and the Province of Buenos Aires, the Government of Buenos Aires, the Government of Paraguay and part of Chaco, and the Province of Chiquitos and Government of Matagroso and of Cuyaba; eight city plans and views, including a double-page plan and view of Buenos Aires, seven plates depicting animals, and four plates depicting birds.
