EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a young woman from Valais, Switzerland, in the 19th century, dressed in her traditional costume. The intricate details of her attire are truly mesmerizing. She wears a fichu, which is a triangular scarf that covers her shoulders and chest, adding an elegant touch to her ensemble. Her laced bodice accentuates her figure while the layers of petticoats and apron create a sense of modesty and practicality. The highlight of this outfit is undoubtedly her straw hat adorned with ribbons. Positioned above it is a delicate muslin bonnet, completing the look with grace and charm. These accessories not only protect her face from the sun but also add flair to an already stunning ensemble. This handcoloured copperplate engraving by Georges Jacques Gatine beautifully captures every intricate detail of this traditional Swiss costume. It was originally illustrated by Louis Marie Lante for "Costumes of Various Countries" in Paris back in 1827. As we admire this image today, we are transported back in time to witness the rich cultural heritage preserved through clothing choices. This photograph serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece that allows us to appreciate the beauty and diversity found within different regions around the world.
