Cartography 18th century Brazil Colonia del Sacramento Rocha, José Joaquim da Biblioteca Pública Municipal do Porto

The purpose of this short article is simple: to attribute an anonymous manuscript map of the Colonia de Sacramento, a territory north of the río de la Plata, that had been contended between the Spanish and Portuguese empires, kept in the Biblioteca Pública Municipal do Porto, to the cartographer José Joaquim da Rocha (c. 1740-1807). The argument will be based on iconographic evidence, as no record about the map’s history is available. The analysis of the map will shed light on Rocha’s cartographic practices, and the attribution of the map to Rocha will shed new light on his career.
