1910réf. 230061910. Indigenous Peoples of Argentina's Chaco and Northern Regions early 20th century. This photo archive consists of 10 black and white photographs comprising three real photo postcards and four original silver gelatin photographs documenting Indigenous peoples of Argentina in rural and semi-rural settings. The materials date to the early 20th century and originate primarily from northern Argentina with several images clearly associated with Indigenous communities of the Chaco. The postcards carry printed captions in Spanish identifying subjects by regional or ethnic designation. The post cards are from the 1910s-20s while the photographs are probably from 1930s-40s demonstrating the eras between Native expulsion at the turn of the century to colonial era labor workers. Historically these images must be understood within the violent context of Indigenous dispossession and assimilation policies in early twentieth-century Argentina. Following campaigns such as the Conquest of the Desert and subsequent northern military actions Indigenous peoples were subjected to land seizure population displacement forced labor on plantations and ranches and confinement within missions or state-controlled settlements. In regions like the Chaco Indigenous communities were frequently exploited for agricultural and industrial labor under coercive conditions while their cultures were documented by missionaries anthropologists and photographers who framed them as vanishing or pre-modern. The collection depicts Indigenous men women and children engaged in daily life and posed portraiture. Group scenes show families gathered outdoors domestic labor such as food preparation and carrying water and communal resting or work areas constructed from organic materials. Several photographs emphasize mobility and subsistence including figures carrying bundles tools or containers across arid terrain while others present seated family groups framed in front of shelters or temporary dwellings. Individual and small-group portraits highlight clothing that blends Indigenous traditions with elements of imposed or adopted settler attire revealing the uneven process of cultural disruption and adaptation underway at the time. Light handling and edgewear throughout photos remain crisp and clear. Overall very good condition. This archive provides an important primary visual source for understanding Indigenous life in Argentina during a critical era of colonial consolidation offering insight into everyday practices family structures and the visual strategies through which Indigenous peoples were represented and controlled. unknown

1883In-8°, legatura in mezza tela con titoli in oro su tassello al dorso, pp. XXVI, 2 bianche, 217(1). Con 55 tavole fotolitografiche di carte (ripiegate), strumenti, tipi indigeni, esemplari botanici, etc. Buon esemplare. Spartiacque per la scienza e la geopolitica argentine, la Spedizione Australe fu un progetto dell'esploratore e tenente di marina italiano Giacomo Bove, realizzato con l'appoggio del governo argentino. L'obiettivo iniziale di arrivare in Antartide fu modificato a beneficio di una spedizione scientifica nella parte meridionale della regione patagonica. Sotto il comando militare del comandante Luis Piedrabuena e quello scientifico di Bove, la nave Cabo de Hornos e poi la San José percorsero il fiume Santa Cruz, la Isla de los Estados, lo Estrecho di Magellano, i canali fueguini, il nord della Terra del Fuoco, Punta Arenas, Río Gallegos e parte della provincia di Santa Cruz. La spedizione produsse validi risultati in campo zoologico, botanico, metereologico, etnografico, orografico e geologico.

Tutta tela editoriale con la rarissima sovraccoperta fotografica, estremamente difficile da reperirsi, probabilmente per la frase a firma Mussolini che campoeggia al piatto anteriore e che potrebbe aver indotto molti possessori a eliminarla. Curiosa la figura di Alberto MAria De Agostini, sacerdote salesiano e missionario in Terra del Fuoco, uni' alla sua attivita' pastorale anche quella di esploratore, alpinista e naturalista. Sali' infatti il Monte S. lorenzo nel 1943 e organizzo' varie spedizioni con Carlo Mauri e Monzino. Importanti furono anche le sue ricerche cartografiche e naturalistiche.
1895réf. 57189Buenos Aires Argentina: Arrufana Garrido Ortiz & Cia. 1895. An Enlightening Look at Buenos Aires and Surroundings in 1895 An interesting gift book from Arrufana Garrido & Ortiz an importing company which operated in Buenos Aires during the 1890s. Each leaf contains a black-and-white photographic illustration of a scene from Buenos Aires or its surroundings on the recto with an advertisement mostly in Spanish printed in cyan on the verso. Among the photos of cities and dramatic landscapes are also more intimate images including several of outdoor markets one of a ranching family outside their straw-roofed home with their livestock and a portrait of a family of Toba people one of Argentina's largest indigenous groups. The illustrations after photographs by Arturo W. Boote are attributed to Gunche Wiebeck y Turtl whose photoprinting and lithography office in Buenos Aires advertised in this volume printed photographs for a number of works as well as maps of Argentina Chile and the surrounding areas of South America around the turn of the 20th century. The advertisements some illustrated offer a wide array of goods and services from firearms to pocket watches to steamboat travel. One advertisement for a restaurant specializing in French and German cuisine is printed side by side in Spanish and German; the text is generally the same although the German side has an additional line that reads "Mit allem comfort der Neuzeit" which might suggest a certain outlook of European visitors towards other establishments in the city. More than just a souvenir this gift book's variety of photos both posed and candid rural and urban along with its breadth of advertisements make it a fascinating window into Argentina at the end of the 19th century.

E' considerato con Hume e Gibbon uno dei tre grandi storici inglesi del XVIII° secolo. Figlio di un ministro presbiteriano e risiedette a lungo a Gladsmuir nell'East Lothian (1743-59). Dopo aver preso parte alle rivolte contro i giacobiti che infiammarono la Scozia negli anni quaranta del settecento. Nel 1751 divenne capo del partito moderato in seno all'assemblea generale dellea Chiesa scozzese. Iniziò anche ad interessarsi attivamente alla storiografia pubblicando varie opere che ottennero subito un grande successo. Nel 1777 pubblicò il primo volume della History of America ma i moti che precedettero lo scoppio della Rivoluzione Americana lo indussero a rinunciare temporaneamete a terminare l'opera che fu completata solo posteriormente. La prima edizione italiana, contemporanea alla prima inglese, oltre a descrivere la storia dell'America, sia meridionale, centrale che settentrionale, ne analizza anche lo sviluppo economico, commerciale, gli usi e costumi, la situazione demografica, le cure tradizionali ecc. ecc.

1910réf. 230041910. Real photo postcards depicting Indigenous peoples of Argentina in the early twentieth century document communities identified in captions as Indios del Chaco alongside additional references to southern regions including Tierra del Fuego. Produced during a period of intensified state expansion and consolidation these images record Indigenous individuals and groups at a time when Argentine policies of land seizure labor exploitation and missionization reshaped Indigenous life. The archive supports research into Indigenous history Latin American nation building and the visual culture of ethnographic photography. Archive consists of 12 black and white real photo postcards each with printed Spanish captions identifying subjects by region or group. The images present posed and semi candid compositions of Indigenous men women and children including group portraits of families and community gatherings as well as individual figures. Several photographs emphasize bodily presentation attire and adornment while others depict men holding tools or weapons in open landscapes. The majority of images are associated with the Chaco region an area targeted by military campaigns and settler expansion while one card references Tierra del Fuego extending the geographic range of the archive. The postcards appear to have been issued for circulation as documentary or commercial imagery. These photographs were produced in the aftermath of campaigns such as the Conquest of the Desert and subsequent northern military actions when Indigenous populations in Argentina were subjected to displacement forced labor and incorporation into state and missionary systems. Visual documentation of Indigenous communities during this period often coincided with efforts by anthropologists missionaries and state actors to classify and record populations whose autonomy was being curtailed. The images therefore function both as records of community life and as artifacts of a broader system of representation tied to colonial governance and modernization narratives. Mild fading and edge wear to some cards with others remaining sharp; overall very good condition. This archive provides primary visual documentation of Indigenous communities in Argentina during a period of significant political and social transformation. unknown
