About the Item
1857 Map of Southern South America – Argentina, Chile, Rio de Janeiro
Original antique map titled “Der Südliche Theil von Süd-America” (The Southern Part of South America), published by Justus Perthes in Gotha, 1857. This finely engraved map shows the southern part of South America, including Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, and southern Brazil. It also features two inset maps of the Bay and City of Rio de Janeiro.
Drawn by V. von Stülpnagel, the map presents a wealth of detail including cities such as Buenos Aires, Santiago, Montevideo, and Valparaíso, and geographical features such as the Andes Mountains, rivers, capes, and islands. The southern cone, including Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, is accurately delineated, along with the Falkland Islands.
The two inset maps in the lower right corner provide a closer look at:
1. The Bay of Rio de Janeiro, showing its dramatic harbor and surrounding geography.
2. The city of Rio de Janeiro itself, including streets, fortifications, and key structures.
This map was part of a two-sheet representation of South America and is the southern half of the full set. Printed in copperplate and hand-colored to indicate territorial boundaries, it reflects the high-quality cartographic work typical of Justus Perthes publications.
Condition report:
Very good condition with only light age toning. A few minor spots in the margins. Strong print quality and original hand-coloring remain crisp and clear.
Framing suggestions:
This map would look excellent in a simple black or dark wooden frame with a soft off-white mat to highlight the engraving and fine line work. Pairs beautifully with the northern sheet for a full continental view.
Technique: Copperplate engraving with original hand-coloring
Maker: Justus Perthes / V. von Stülpnagel, Gotha, 1857
