181537088Buenos Ayres: Imprenta de Niños Expòsitos 1815. First edition. About very good with chipped edges barely touching first letter of text on a few lines leaf browned. Broadside. 4to. The Cabildo retook control as stated in this document which Zinny dates to 16 April 1815. On the prior day Carlos MarÃa de Alvear who'd been appointed to replace his uncle Posadas as Supreme Director on January 9 1815 at the age of 25 resigned under pressure due to a mutiny among his troops. Alvear never had much support from the countryside nor from his troops his negotations with Artigas failed and his eventual attempt at seeking British intervention led to his exile. Thus the Cabildo "por la disolucion absoluta de las autoridades que la ejercian ha vendio en declarario asi reasumiendo provisoriamente por la premura de las circunstancias la Autoridad Soberana del Peublo con la extension de la facultades que le son propias y con la calidad de nombrar immediatamente un Gobierno Provisorio."

Light edge wear. Very good. Matted. An attractive group of lithographic vignettes of scenes in and around Buenos Aires.<br/> <br/> These images were published by Rodolfo Kratzenstein who was one of the leading lithographers in Buenos Aires from the mid-1850s and are probably from pictorial letter sheets issued by his firm in that period. One illustration shows a long stretch of the cityscape of Buenos Aires from the harbour and several ships are shown in the choppy waters of the port. Other images show the "Casa de Justicia" the courts and the "Palermo"neighborhood.
