Item description from seller

[Descripción en español a continuación] Map of the regions of Paraguay and Uruguay, as well as a large part of the south of Brazil and a small area of the north of Argentina. This map was published in London in the year 1844 by the S.D.U.K. ("Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge"). This British society was an organisation dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge by means of accessible and detailed maps. It published atlases and geographical charts of high quality, promoting cartographic education. Its works combined precision and affordability, broadening access to geography. The map extends from the Río de la Plata in the south to the Brazilian regions of Matto Grosso, Goyaz, Pernambuco and Bahía. Worth noting are the various Brazilian regions shown apart from those already mentioned, among them we find "Rio Grande do Sul", "Santa Catarina", "São Paulo", "Minas Gerais", "Rio de Janeiro", "Espirito Santo" and "Porto Seguro". Among the most important localities we can find Buenos Aires, Montevideo and Maldonado in the south. In the west we can find Asunción and Corrientes. On the other hand, on the Brazilian coast we find Porto Alegre, São Paulo, Santos, Rio de Janeiro, Victoria and Contas. Worth noting is the detailed illustration of the relief with the use of shading, as well as the great definition and display of rivers, lagoons and lakes. Its title is located in the lower right part and it forms part of a large collection of maps that together form the South American continent. -------------------- Mapa ilustrativo de las regiones de Paraguay y Uruguay, así como gran parte del sur de Brasil y una pequeña zona del norte de Argentina.
