EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled 'Femme Morlaque du Canton de Segna' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, dates back to the late 18th century, around 1797. A significant work in the field of ethnography and anthropology, it is part of the series 'Costumes de Differents Pays' or 'Costumes of Different Countries.' The image showcases a Morlach woman from the Canton of Segna, a region now part of Croatia in Eastern Europe. The woman is depicted in full length, standing outside against an unspecified background, dressed in traditional Morlach attire. She wears a long, purple coat with intricate patterns and wide, voluminous sleeves. A hat adorned with a colorful ribbon sits atop her head, and she wears a hand-tinted engraving on paper. Her dress, made of an unknown fabric, is adorned with elaborate patterns and a high neckline. Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, a French artist, meticulously captured the details of this traditional Morlach costume, providing a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Eastern Europe during the 18th century. This print is an essential historical record, offering insight into the clothing, customs, and traditions of a people and a place in time. The 'Femme Morlaque du Canton de Segna' is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). It is a testament to the importance of preserving and documenting the diverse cultural and artistic expressions of the past. The print's enduring allure lies in its ability to transport us to another time and place, offering a window into the world of the Morlach people and their unique traditions.
