EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays: 'Femme de l'Isle Ste. Christine' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur (c1797) is an exquisite hand-tinted engraving that offers a fascinating glimpse into the diverse and richly adorned traditional costumes of various countries, specifically highlighting a woman from Isle Ste. Christine in this image. Dressed in a vibrant, colorful outfit, the woman is depicted barefoot, carrying a basket on her head and adorned with a plumed headdress. Her body is adorned with intricate leg ornaments, and her arms are adorned with a series of bracelets and other accessories. The clothing she wears is made of various fabrics, each with its unique texture and pattern, reflecting the cultural heritage of the Pacific Islands. The engraving, created by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur in the late 18th century, is a testament to the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of different cultures through his art. The exterior setting of the image further emphasizes the connection between the woman and her natural surroundings. This historic artwork, now held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a valuable addition to the ethnographic and anthropological collections, providing an insight into the clothing and accessories of the past. The intricate details of the costume, the use of color, and the overall composition of the image make it a must-see for anyone interested in fashion, history, or the study of different cultures.
