I'd go with that.

Governor of Buenos Aires in the 1850s, born in 1785, don't know if this is 
the same guy.

OR...an artist who superseded Goya in the royal court's favour.

Pynchon is up on his Argentinian political history, so I'd suggest the 
first. Can't find any details on him in English, however, and the 
translation programs I use all suck.

Gastrick speech indeed. I noticed that Torpedo is also another name for a 
kind of cigar, too. I did not know that. Has Lord Sandwich come up yet? I 
can't recall.
