There’s just a week left for the photo exhibition at Centro Cultural Recoleta featuring photos of Buenos Aires from between 1870–1880. The exhibit includes some of the first photographs of Buenos Aires, and takes you through the 19th century version of the city.
Photos from a variety of artists are featured, but the majority come from Christiano Junior, a Portuguese photographer, famous for capturing typical scenes and characters of Buenos Aires. Some of the images included in the exhibit chronicle the construction of the Parque Tres de febrero, the Penitenciaria Nacional and the railway stations.
Other contributing photographers include Antonio Pozzo, Carlos Feltscher and the Bizioli brothers, rounding out the visual history of Argentina.
The exhibit runs through Sunday March 1st.
