Description
Photograph portrait of Domingo F. Sarmiento: President of Argentina, Minister of Education, educator, intellectual, author, and member of the "1837 Generation" of liberals inspired by European Romanticism and democratic ideals. Sarmiento was a vocal advocate for public education, drawing inspiration from his travels to the United States while in exile under the Rosas regime. His most famous book, Civilización i barbarie, became the basis for liberal ideas about national progress and modernity that informed the views of subsequent generations of middle-class citizens.
