EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Homme Ischeremisse' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, created around 1797, is an intriguing and captivating work of art that showcases the diverse traditional costumes of various countries. This engraving, hand-tinted on paper, depicts a man from Ischeremisse, an ancient name for Israel. He is shown standing full-length, dressed in a fur-trimmed coat, a colorful hat adorned with laces, and a simple shirt. The exterior setting further emphasizes the authenticity of the scene, as the man is portrayed in his natural environment, likely outdoors. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse were prominent figures in the field of ethnography and ethnology during the 18th century. Their work, 'Costumes de Differents Pays,' was a significant contribution to the scientific study of clothing and apparel from various parts of the world. This particular engraving, 'Homme Ischeremisse,' is a testament to their dedication to documenting and preserving the rich cultural heritage of different peoples and their traditional costumes. The man in the image is depicted with a serious expression, adding to the authenticity and historical significance of the work. The hand-coloring and meticulous attention to detail further enhance the visual appeal and accuracy of the representation. This engraving is now part of the vast collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the fascinating world of historic clothing and the diverse cultures that shaped it.
