Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Fille de l'Isle de Santorin' (Dress of Different Countries, 'Girl from the Island of Santorini'), is an exquisite 18th-century engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. This full-length portrait showcases the traditional attire of a woman from the Greek island of Santorini. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the hand-tinted image transport us back in time to the 1790s, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Europe and the Aegean region. The 'Fille de l'Isle de Santorin' is depicted wearing a voluminous, fringed dress adorned with intricate patterns and bold colors, reflecting the unique textiles and craftsmanship of the island. Her headscarf, adorned with delicate floral motifs, complements the dress and completes her traditional ensemble. The exterior setting, with its picturesque landscape and sunlit sky, further emphasizes the beauty and allure of the Mediterranean. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse's 'Costumes de Différents Pays' series was a groundbreaking publication that documented the diverse clothing styles of various countries and continents. This particular image, featuring the 'Fille de l'Isle de Santorin,' offers a fascinating insight into the ethnography and ethnology of the time, showcasing the unique and varied clothing traditions of the European continent and beyond. Today, this precious piece of art and historical record is preserved and displayed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of 18th-century fashion and the rich cultural heritage it represents.
