EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a hand-tinted engraving titled 'Jeune Paysan des Environs de Limoge' (Young Peasant from the Surroundings of Limoge) by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, created around 1797. The 18th-century print is a stunning representation of an agricultural laborer from the Limoges region in Haute Vienne, France. The young man is depicted in full length, standing in an exterior setting, with a hoe in hand, looking away from the viewer. He wears traditional clothing of the time, including a simple, high-waisted, long-sleeved shirt, a vest, and a pair of clogs. His attire is adorned with a colorful garter, adding a touch of vibrancy to the monochrome print. The intricate details of the costume, from the texture of the fabric to the laces on the boots, are beautifully captured in this hand-colored engraving. The image offers a glimpse into the agricultural lifestyle of the time, providing valuable insights into European ethnography and anthropology. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, a renowned French artist, is known for his 'Costumes de Different Pays' series, which documented various costumes from different continents. This print is a testament to his dedication to preserving the heritage of fashion and clothing throughout history. The young peasant, with his humble yet resilient demeanor, serves as a reminder of the hardworking individuals who shaped the agricultural landscape of Europe during the 18th century. This image is a must-have for anyone interested in history, fashion, or the social and cultural aspects of the past.
