EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différent Pays, 'Paysanne de L'Angoumois' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur is an exquisite and intriguing engraving from the late 18th century, depicting a French rural woman, specifically identified as a Paysanne de L'Angoumois from the Angoumois region in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. The image captures the essence of agricultural labor during this period, showcasing the woman's practical yet colorful attire. The Paysanne is dressed in a long, full-length, hand-tinted, and hand-colored engraving on paper. She wears a simple, high-waisted, full skirt, adorned with a decorative apron. Her blouse is white, with a high neckline and long, flowing sleeves. Over her shoulders, she wears a cape, which is fastened at the neck with a brooch. Her footwear consists of clogs, with high carriage boots tucked in, and she carries a basket on her back, filled with fresh eggs. The woman is depicted standing in an exterior setting, surrounded by agricultural elements such as grass, trees, and a fence. The engraving is a testament to the rich ethnographic and anthropological significance of this period, offering a glimpse into the daily life of rural communities in Europe during the 18th century. Grasset de Saint-Sauveur's 'Costumes de Différent Pays' series is a valuable historical resource, providing insight into the diverse clothing and customs of various European countries. This particular image, 'Paysanne de L'Angoumois,' offers a unique perspective into the agricultural laborer's life in France during this time.
