- Title:
- Buenos Aires, Palermo II [1910s-1930s]
- Scope & Content:
- Description: Palermo is the largest neighborhood in the city of Buenos Aires. The name comes from the abbey San Benedicto de Palermos (Saint Benedict of Palermo) who was a much loved saint in the city of Palermo in Sicily. An alternative story is that the land was bought by the Italian immigrant Juan Domingo Palermos who bought to its original owner, the polemic caudillo (or leader) Juan Manuel de Rosas. It features many of the emblematic places in the city of Buenos Aires: the zoo, the Botanical Gardens, Plaza (or square) Italia, the race track, the local airport, the planetarium, and the Japanese Garden-a gift from the Japanese immigrants to the city-, and the Woods of Palermo. This is a park that was designed and built by three important artists of the urban landscape of Buenos Aires: Jordán Czeslaw Wysocki, architect Julio Dormal, and landscape artist Carlos Thays. These landmarks of Palermo and Buenos Aires were designed and built in the last decades of the 19th century when the zone started to grow and Palermo became one of the chic neighbourhoods of Buenos Aires. Extent and format of original material: The number II on its cover means that this is the second envelope on Palermo in the collection. We cannot know how many there were on this subject as this is a small part of the original archive.
