Summary
DescriptionLatzina Map of Argentina 1882.jpg
English: Latzina map of 1882.
The first official argentine map, produced, after the Boundary Treaty of 1881. It was ordered to be drawn up by the then Argentine Minister of the Interior, Bernardo de Irigoyen for inclusion in an official publication issued by the Director of the National Statistics Office in 1883 under the title "The Argentine Republic as a field for European Emigration". This was published in Spanish, English, German, French and Italian in a edition of 120,000 copies.
See [1]. The Latzina map of 1882 proved to be significant in the ICJ case between Argentina and Chile over the disputed Beagle Channel islands, since the disputed islands are shown as Chilean territory. It was created under the auspices of Señor Irigoyen, who had been previously responsible for negotiating the Boundary Treaty of 1881 with Chile. Due to his involvement, the significance of showing the islands as Chilean was deemed by the ICJ as a direct representation of Irigoyen's view of the boundaries between the two countries.
This image is taken from a photograph of the original held by the British Library, Shelfmark: Cartographic Items Maps 8.c.27, UIN: BLL01004793507. Online copy:[2], Catalogue Entry: [3]. It was taken with a Panasonic TZ7 camera in 2011. This digital compact camera only produces images in compressed quality format (JPEG). The compression algorithm could introduce artefacts not present in the original image; especially in Macro mode when taking pictures of documents. Colour enhancement in digital cameras can also introduce errors in colour reproduction. The photo was subsequently imported into GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), rotated to remove cant imparted by errors in framing the original image and excess border trimmed. Please refer to other versions below for comparison.
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.
Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
