notes:
|
The Gouaycourous occupied Brazil near the border with Uruguay. They were known as keepers and merchants of all kinds of cattle and skilled at taming wild horses. The women were famous for weaving cotton.The lithographs in this book were made from drawings made by Debret during his fifteen-year residence (1816-1831) in Brazil.Lithographer is probably Charles Etienne Pierre Motte (French printmaker and draftsman, 1785-1836).Image placed horizontally on page.
