Johann Moritz Rugendas’ (Maurice Rugendas) was hired as an illustrator by Baron von Langsdorff and accompanied him on expeditions in Brazil (1822-1825) so these lithographs are based on drawings or memories from when Rugendas was in Brazil. There are also lithographs at the end of the then emperor of Brazil, Dom Pedro.
