Don Alejandro María Aguado y Ramírez de Estenoz 1st Marquis de Las Marismas del Guadalquivir Seville June 29 1784 Gijon April 14 1842 Spanish banker was born of Old Christian parentage originally from La Rioja at Seville.

He was exiled in 1815 and immediately started business as a commission-agent in Paris where chiefly through his family connections in Havana and Mexico he acquired in a few years enough wealth to enable him to undertake banking. The Spanish government gave him full powers to negotiate the loans of 1823 1828 1830 and 1831; and Ferdinand VII. rewarded him with the title of marquis the decorations of several orders and valuable mining concessions in Spain. Aguado also negotiated the Greek loan of 1834. In 1828 having become possessed of large estates in France including the Château Margaux famous for its wine he was naturalized as a French citizen.

1876Best.-Nr. 60903Philadelphia: Centennial Views New Excelsior American Views Peoples Series Underwood & Underwood George Barker H.L. Roberts & Co. American Scenery et al 1876-ca. 1926. Twenty-six albumen stereoview photographs 1 coloured sized 5.75 x 3 in. mounted on assorted stereograph boards sized 7 x 3.5 in. many w/ captions faintly w/in negative at lower fore-edge some w/ photographer’s imprint lower fore-edge of board many w/ decorative borders some w/ ink or pencil MS on verso occasional dustsoiling minor edgewear just a couple slightly over-exposed otherwise a good collection from the library of Prof. Marvin Nathan. The Centennial Board of Commissioners awarded the sole license for photography at the exposition just prior to the exhibition to Edward L. Wilson editor of The Philadelphia Photographer who partnered with his good friend William Notman a Scottish-Canadian Photographer as well as Adams of New York and John Fraser. The views included here include the Agricultural Building; Board of Finance Buildings; Machinery Hall interior with the Corliss Engine operating ni the distance; Horticultural Hall along with the Main Entrance and the Exposition grounds. One of the most interesting of the series shows the vast Main Building pavilion under construction with drainage pipes strewn around in the fore-ground while the immense trusses and structural elements slowly march towards the viewer. Most of these images were originally shot by the Centennial Photographic Co. who had proved to be quite successful during the Centennial and the photographers were in great demand through and after the Exhibition which featured over 10 million visitors. Released in a slightly reduced format and licensed out to Underwood & Underwood later Keystone and many others these offered visitors a cut-rate viewing experience. Barker 1844-1894 gained renown originally working for one of Ontario Canada’s leading photographers and later became well-known for his majestic photos of Niagara Falls before a Feb. 1870 destroyed his photo studio although the 800 stereoview negatives were preserved. He later began traveling to shoot views around the United States and released Exposition related images. See: Centennial Photographic Co.
