Lima 1870. Albumen photographs measuring 2 x 3 ½ inches on larger mounts. Some slight fading a few spots to one image including one with loss about very good overall. A striking pair of early carte-de-visite portraits of Peruvian women from the Courret studios at 197 Calle de la Union one bearing the Courret Hermanos imprint and the other with just Eugenio Courret’s credit from the same studio.

[Peru – Panama – Medicine] Burres, W T
Photographic Archive of a Californian Adventurer and Doctor in South America 1903-1918
Peru and Panama 1918. Approximately 364 photos; album and unmounted photos silver prints cyanotypes and printing-out-paper prints. Photos measure 3 x 4 to 8 x 10 inches with about half measuring 3 x 5 ½ inches. Some with photographer’s hand-stamp or credit in pencil; others with manuscript notations verso or recto; some captions to album pages. Offered in partnership with Daniel / Oliver.<br /> <br /> Rich and extensive photographic archive of Walton T. Burres of Stockton California showing his time in Peru c. 1904 as an amateur explorer and doctor for the Inca Mining and Rubber Company and his later work in Panama c. 1918 with the Rockefeller Foundation’s International Health Division.The collection consists of a large number of loose photos acquired by the gallery in 2021 and a recently discovered photo album showing some of the same subjects and containing a few duplicate images some printed in different sizes or formats as well as hundreds of previously unseen prints. Together this material makes up the largest extant archive of Burres’s photographic work. Though his work was published at the time both in Peruvian and American publications much of it was lost when he dropped it in a river that he was attempting to ford.<br /> <br /> Burres was educated at California’s Cooper Medical College the first school of medicine on the West Coast and was a prominent member of the Stockton community before sojourning to Peru around 1900 to help the Inca Mining and Rubber Company address the deadly diseases endemic to the region such as malaria and yellow fever. To encourage economic infrastructure in remote areas the Peruvian government began granting land concessions to any company that would build roads bridges or river ports. As a result the Inca Mining Company an American outfit based in Tirapata purchased the rights to mine gold along the upper Inambari River in 1896 and soon became the richest gold producer in Peru.<br /> <br /> A large portion of Burres’s Peruvian images document his 1903–1904 excursion from Arequipa 150 miles into “rubber country.†The journeys were well-recounted in U.S. papers and a number of the anecdotes described in print are seen in the present images.<br /> <br /> There are many dynamic views of Burres and his party trekking through the dense jungle and summiting the high mountains as well as shots of flora fauna and native Peruvians. Burres’s travel companions for this trip included the famed adventurer Harriet Chalmers Adams later dubbed “America’s greatest woman explorer†by the New York Times. Adams and her husband Frank both fellow Stocktonians joined up with Burres during their own multi-year expedition through South America. There are a number of portraits of a woman who bears a striking resemblance to Adams though it is possibly another person.<br /> <br /> Other Peruvian material includes numerous views of Cusco Arequipa and the surrounding environs including a beautiful interior of a chapel a Martin Chambi-esque detail shot of a stone wall and portraits of local townspeople some identified as Quechua people. There are a number of lush large-format cyanotypes rich printing-out-paper views and many handsome small-format panoramas. These were printed on Inca Mining Company surplus stationary which speaks to the makeshift nature of photo-development under the circumstances. One particularly striking image shows the top of Misti volcano barely visible above the clouds. This image was reproduced in Burres's account of his travels published in 1909 in Outing magazine.<br /> <br /> The photographs from Burres’s time in Panama document his more serious work as a virologist and health administrator in the area. One interesting photo shows a pair of recently-shot iguanas with a caption noting that “blood of these reptiles was found infected with Haemogregarina.†Another image is that of a new style of privy built from concrete and wire-mesh designed to better keep out rain water. There are also keenly-shot views of main streets and local culture in Los Santos Chiriquà and elsewhere including a number of humanistic group portraits taken at a girl’s school. unknown

[Peru]. [Law]
Grito de la Justicia Deprimida caption title
Arequipa 1829. 4pp. on a bifolium. Removed from a bound volume. A few small areas of worming slightly affecting text. Light toning and scattered faint foxing. An unrecorded and indignant diatribe concerning a mud-slinging match in the Peruvian town of Arequipa in the late 1820s which begins "Bien ruidosa ha sido la causa de los libelos famosos que corrieron ahora pocos meses en esta capital contra personas las mas notables de ella." The rest of the bifolium gives an account of the convoluted events that apparently involve several episodes of clear libel by several individuals for which their victims are having difficulty in obtaining legal remedy with the result that scandalous lies are now being spread with impunity. The author concludes by pleading for more swift reliable justice and equality before the law from authorities in Arequipa:<br /> <br /> "Si os mostrais débiles y preferis la inaccion sereis indignos de los destinos que ocupais. Patriotas y no patriotas todos son iguales ante la ley y no debeis permitir nunca que triunfe la impunidad: gloriaos en fin de padecer por la justicia pues asi dais el debido lleno à vuestros cargos."<br /> <br /> Surviving printing from Arequipa during this period is very scarce. unknown

[Peru]. [Military]
Small Archive of Seven Peruvian Imprints Relating to the 1829 War with Gran Colombia
Various places in Peru 1830. Good. Seven broadsides and bifolia totaling 14pp. with each sheet measuring approximately 11.5 x 7.5 inches. Previously bound with stabholes and residue at left margin. Moderate worming affecting some text but not sense. Minor tanning and soiling. A group of seven highly ephemeral and seemingly unrecorded military broadsides and bifolia reports from Peru dating to the country's war with Gran Colombia from 1828 to 1829 and just after. The conflict stemmed from a border dispute after independence was gained in 1820 and 1821 with the boundary left relatively undefined. The Armistice of Piura formally agreed in September 1829 recognized Guayaquil and its surrounding area as a part of Gran Colombia and accorded Peru recognition of its modern-day northern provinces. The documents present here include an exhortation by Peruvian President Agustin Gamarra to support the prospective peace a report on the state of the Peruvian treasury in Trujillo during the midst of the conflict a bulletin concerning military developments in April 1829 addressed to the armed forces a patriotic broadside printed in Arequipa and a congratulatory address to the army printed on the day of armistice. The titles of these works none of which are individually recorded in OCLC are as follows:<br /> <br /> 1 Gamarra Agustin. El Presidente Provisoria del Peru a los Pueblos de la Republica. Lima: September 1 1829.<br /> 2 Peru. Estado Que Manifiesta las Cantidades Acopiadas por Esta Administracion Pral. del Tesoro Público del Departamento de la Libertad en el Presente Mes de Junio.
