EDITORS COMMENTS
This costume plate, titled "Bauer aus dem Hanauerland, Baden" (Farmer from Hanauerland, Baden), dates back to the 1870s and is an intriguing glimpse into the fashion and rural life of the 19th century, specifically in the German state of Baden. The engraving, of unknown origin, showcases a farmer in his traditional attire, standing confidently before a rustic doorway. His clothing consists of a long, dark coat, high-waisted trousers, and a thick, fur-trimmed hat. He wears sturdy, high-top boots with laced-up carriage boots and thick woolen socks. The lettering at the bottom of the plate identifies him as a "Bauer," or farmer, from Hanauerland, Baden. The intricate line engraving on paper, with its meticulous attention to detail, transports us back in time to a simpler era. The farmer's strong, solid posture and the weathered doors in the background further emphasize the rural, rustic setting. This costume plate is a valuable addition to any collection of heritage art, offering a unique perspective on the fashion and occupations of the 19th century in Germany and beyond. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to have this piece in its extensive collection, allowing us to appreciate and learn from the rich history it represents.
