Hi, Thx!, now is a lot more clear!, I have a shape with this CRS:
Coordinate Reference System:
  User input: WGS 84 / UTM zone 19S 
  wkt:
PROJCRS["WGS 84 / UTM zone 19S",
    BASEGEOGCRS["WGS 84",
        DATUM["World Geodetic System 1984",
            ELLIPSOID["WGS 84",6378137,298.257223563,
                LENGTHUNIT["metre",1]]],
        PRIMEM["Greenwich",0,
            ANGLEUNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433]],
        ID["EPSG",4326]],
    CONVERSION["UTM zone 19S",
        METHOD["Transverse Mercator",
            ID["EPSG",9807]],
        PARAMETER["Latitude of natural origin",0,
            ANGLEUNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433],
            ID["EPSG",8801]],
        PARAMETER["Longitude of natural origin",-69,
            ANGLEUNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433],
            ID["EPSG",8802]],
        PARAMETER["Scale factor at natural origin",0.9996,
            SCALEUNIT["unity",1],
            ID["EPSG",8805]],
        PARAMETER["False easting",500000,
            LENGTHUNIT["metre",1],
            ID["EPSG",8806]],
        PARAMETER["False northing",10000000,
            LENGTHUNIT["metre",1],
            ID["EPSG",8807]]],
    CS[Cartesian,2],
        AXIS["(E)",east,
            ORDER[1],
            LENGTHUNIT["metre",1]],
        AXIS["(N)",north,
            ORDER[2],
            LENGTHUNIT["metre",1]],
    ID["EPSG",32719]]
This CRS is a tranformation from WGS84 to   UTM zone 19S?, If is a 
transfomation, I don't know, if the data of the file is already transformed, 
or, the data will be transformed to  UTM zone 19S.
Because, in case it is already transform, to recover the original, I should 
rollback the transformation and set the WGS84 as the CRS to can use WKT2 in the 
right way. (skipping the WGS84 pivot)

Thx.

Hi,
 
  
 
The more or less same question seems to be asked some time ago in 
gis.stackexchange 
https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/420378/can-we-construct-wkt2-from-proj4string-correctly.

Aihe: [gdal-dev] [Question] PROJ4String to WKT2 Transformations
 
  
 
Hi hi, I was looking for someplace to ask about this, and I was in doubt is was 
here or in PROJ, but lets do a try.
 
  
 
Actually, probably I'm not the only one, I have some questions about how WKT2 
and PROJ4Strings are transformed.

Actually, we can transform a old CRS to a WKT2:

So, in some way, GDAL is able to cover this "breach" of information betwen 
PROJ4String and WKT2, but is not like the breach does not exist, it was just 
handled in some way, so, the lack of info, also means, there can be othe 
aproximations to that CRS.
 
  
 
Maybe I'm just confused, and mixing things the things I read, I'm just trying 
to figure it out, what and how would be the right transformation from 
proj4string to wkt2.
 
  
 
Thx.
