EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Costumes de Différent Pays, 'Paysanne des Environs de Limoge'" by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, dates back to the 1790s and offers a fascinating glimpse into the agricultural life of France during the late 18th century. The image depicts a female agricultural worker, dressed in traditional clothing from the Limoges region of Haute-Vienne in France. The woman is shown from the back, with her long, dark hair tied up in a simple bun. She wears a blue, full-length dress with a white apron, adorned with intricate red and green patterns. A red bonnet sits atop her head, and she carries a large, woven basket on her back. Her hands are busy, one holding a long, wooden staff and the other cradling a small bundle. The engraving, hand-colored and hand-tinted on paper, showcases the intricate details of the woman's clothing and accessories. The rich colors and textures transport us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and simplicity of rural life during this era. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur was a renowned French artist and ethnographer, known for his extensive work documenting the costumes and traditions of various European countries. This print, part of the "Costumes de Different Pays" series, is a testament to his dedication to preserving the heritage of the past. The image is a valuable resource for anthropologists, ethnologists, and historians, providing insights into the clothing and lifestyle of agricultural laborers during the 18th century. Today, it is housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the rich history of European culture.
