Title

A capital do Brasil.

Creator

Michellerie, E. de la.

Date

Description

The item is a map of “A Capital of Brazil”, published in 1831. Colors indicate parishes: yellow is Candelaria, pink is San José, blue is Sacramento, green is Santa Anna, and peach is Santa Rita. We get a visual on the general layout of Rio and the islands surrounding the coast.

The item is helpful in getting an idea of what life was like in Rio de Janeiro during the time of The Lamplighter and during Mr. Phillips’ adventure there. It helps us imagine the surroundings during his letter to Gerty.
