Cortesi's Masterpiece: A Comprehensive and Authoritative Map of Uruguay, 1903
Located in Langweer, NL
Antique map titled 'Mapa de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay'. Large and detailed folding map of Uruguay. This monumental map depicts all of Uruguay with unprecedented accuracy and detail. Impressively, it serves the multiple roles of being an advanced topographic, economic and political map, as well as being a meticulous sea chart of the Rio de la Plata and the adjacent waters of the Atlantic. The republic's 20 departments are defined in various colors, while a legend, 'Referencias' identifies symbols representing the locations of departmental capitals, town, roads, railways, public schools and lighthouses, amongst other details. Every single river and stream is delineated and named and the ridges of hills are delicately expressed. The map features four insets, including a large map of the capital, Montevideo, as well as maps of Colonia, Maldonado and Punta del Este and the Island of Flores. The hydrographical information provided is truly profound, and renders the map fit for use in maritime commerce.
In 1901, the Uruguayan House of Representatives commissioned the geographer Saturnino Cortesi to employ the most progressive geographical sources, both military and civilian, to devise an authoritative national map of the republic. Cortesi clearly had access to a vast archive of topographical surveys...
