Abstract

Luis Pérez’s work puts into play a way of fictionalizing the commoner sectors that introduces a novelty and a particularity in the Rio de la Plata region around 1830. In turn, differentiating itself from the enlightened currents of the time, it gives a place diverse to women within the fabric of the political community. In this way, Pérez’s gazetteer and gaucho work leaves a mark on the literature of the region, making the common people (female and male) a leading subject in the framework of the fictional sovereign people proposed in his prints. This, which is expressed as a formal variety and a diversity of voices, far from constituting a fault in terms of the gaucho realization of his work, is a plus that, seen in retrospect, operates as a brand and irruption, and a way of intervening in public space and its aesthetic and political disputes.
