About the Item
Antique Engraving of Buenos Aires, City and Harbor View, 1867
Engraving titled Buenos-Ayres, published in 1867. This finely detailed view depicts the Argentine capital from the sea, presenting the city’s skyline with its churches, civic buildings, and clustered rooftops stretching across the horizon. In the foreground, sailing vessels and small boats navigate the choppy waters of the Río de la Plata, underscoring Buenos Aires’s role as a vital port and commercial hub in South America.
The engraving captures both the dynamism of maritime activity and the grandeur of the cityscape, offering European audiences a striking impression of Buenos Aires during a period of significant economic and cultural growth. Executed by Outweine after a drawing by Lebreton, and printed in Paris by Ch. Chardon, this work forms part of a series of South American views issued for an international readership.
Condition: Good, with scattered foxing and toning around the margins. The plate impression remains crisp, with excellent detail throughout. Blank verso. Please review the image carefully.
Framing tips: A cream or ivory mount will balance the tonal contrasts of sea and sky, while a dark wood or black frame provides a museum-style finish. A gilt frame, by contrast, adds richness and historical resonance, ideal for emphasizing the engraving’s status as a document of 19th-century Buenos Aires.
Technique: Engraving on paper
Maker: Drawn by Lebreton, engraved by Outweine, printed by Ch. Chardon, Paris, 1867
