EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différent Pays, 'Homme des Landes de Bordeaux Allant à la Ville' (Different Costumes of the Man from the Landes of Bordeaux Going to the City), is an engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, created around 1797. This image is a testament to the rich cultural and sartorial diversity of Europe during the 18th century. The subject of the print is a man from the Landes region of southwestern France, dressed in traditional attire as he makes his way to the city. The landscape behind him is dotted with trees and animals, suggesting a rural setting. The man wears a gilet, a short jacket, and a wide-brimmed hat, both adorned with intricate designs and patterns. A game bird, likely a pheasant, is slung over his shoulder, indicating his connection to the land and its bounty. The print is hand-tinted, adding vibrant colors to the already detailed engraving on paper. Grasset de Saint-Sauveur's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the textures of the man's clothing, the feathers of the bird, and the natural elements in the background. The artist's adaptation of regionalism in his work was influential in the fields of ethnography and ethnology, contributing to the growing interest in the study of different cultures and their unique customs. This historic print is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), showcasing the rich heritage of European art and fashion from the 18th century. The image invites us to explore the diverse world of the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of people from different regions and their distinct traditions.
