EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Homme de l'Aragon' (1797) is an enchanting and intriguing work of art by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. This hand-tinted engraving on paper, part of the Costumes de Differents Pays series, captures the essence of the traditional attire of a man from Aragon, a region in northern Spain. The image, created in the late 18th century, showcases the rich cultural heritage of Europe during this period. The man is depicted in full length, standing confidently outdoors. He wears a traditional Aragonese costume, consisting of a long, dark-colored tunic, a wide-brimmed hat, and a pair of high, laced boots known as carriage boots. The man's posture is proud and his left hand is tucked into the pocket of his tunic, adding a sense of casual ease to the image. The intricate details of the costume are beautifully rendered, with every lace, button, and fold meticulously depicted. The man's helmet, adorned with a crest, adds a touch of nobility and military tradition to the image. The use of hand coloring and tinting adds depth and dimension to the print, making the image all the more captivating. This historic artwork is a testament to the diversity and richness of European culture during the 18th century. It provides a glimpse into the lives of the local people of Aragon and their unique traditions, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of ethnographic or historical art. Today, this precious piece is housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the fascinating history of Europe and its diverse peoples.
