EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays: 'Homme de la Baÿe de Norton' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur (c1797) is an intriguing and captivating work of art that offers a glimpse into the world of the indigenous peoples of Alaska during the late 18th century. This hand-tinted engraving on paper, part of the Costumes de Differents Pays series, depicts a man from Norton Bay, Nome, Alaska, United States. Dressed in traditional attire, the man wears a smock made of animal hides, adorned with intricate designs and fringes. He wears a garter and a neckscarf, both also made of animal hides, and holds a fish in each hand. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the North American indigenous communities and their deep connection to the natural world. The man is shown in a full-length portrait, standing outside in an exotic, natural setting. The engraving is hand-colored, adding vibrant hues to the image, making it even more striking. The man's expression is calm and serene, reflecting his confidence and pride in his heritage. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, a French artist and ethnographer, created this work during the late 18th century, a time when Europeans were becoming increasingly interested in the cultures and peoples of the New World. This image is a valuable contribution to the fields of anthropology and ethnology, providing a visual record of the traditional clothing and way of life of the indigenous peoples of Alaska. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is the current location of this historic artwork, which continues to fascinate and inspire scholars, artists, and visitors alike. The image is a reminder of the rich cultural diversity that exists across the world and the importance of preserving and celebrating these traditions.
