EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays: 'Femme Tattare de Kazan' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, created around 1797, is a captivating and historically significant engraving that showcases the diverse and intricate traditional costumes of different ethnic groups. In this particular image, the focus is on a Kazan Tatar woman from Russia. The woman is depicted in full length, standing outside and gesturing towards herself with a hand adorned with intricate silver bracelets. The woman's attire is a stunning display of vibrant colors and patterns. She wears a pink robe with a floral design, a long, flowing skirt, and a distinctive conical hat. The hat, which is a traditional element of Tatar women's clothing, is adorned with a rose and other decorative elements. The woman's hands and feet are also intricately adorned with silver jewelry, adding to the overall visual appeal of the image. This hand-colored engraving, which was published in France during the late 18th century, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Kazan Tatars and the importance of documenting and preserving traditional clothing and customs. The image is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and serves as a reminder of the diverse and fascinating world that existed before the modern era. The meticulous attention to detail and the use of hand-coloring techniques make this engraving a beautiful and valuable addition to any collection of historical art or ethnography. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving the past and celebrating the unique and diverse cultures that make up our world's rich tapestry of history.
