Oficina Cartografica Bemporat

The Oficina Cartografica Bemporat was an eminent cartographic publishing house based in Buenos Aires. The Bemporat firm were specialists in producing large printed maps of all of South America, but with a particular focus on Argentina and Buenos Aires. Their maps include regional and national charts, railways maps, as well as detailed renditions of urban centers – in particular South American capitals. The Bemporat series on Buenos Aires stands out as particularly seminal, in that they capture the rapid development that the city underwent in this period.
