EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Homme de l'Isle de Siphanto' (c1797) is an exquisite and intriguing engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. This full-length image depicts a man from the Isle of Siphanto, located in the Aegean Sea, proudly displaying a green horn and gesturing with his raised arm. The man wears traditional clothing unique to his region, adding to the ethnographic and anthropological significance of the piece. The 18th-century engraving, hand-tinted and hand-coloured on paper, showcases the man in a vibrant green colour, standing against an exterior backdrop, possibly representing his homeland. The man is dressed in clothing typical of the local people, adding to the rich cultural heritage of the artwork. His costume, with its intricate patterns and details, is a testament to the diverse fashion trends of the time. The man's posture suggests that he may be engaged in a dance or musical performance, further emphasizing the cultural significance of the piece. The inclusion of the musical instrument adds to the lively and dynamic atmosphere of the image. This historic artwork, now held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on the 18th century, European art, or ethnography. The intricate details and rich cultural significance make it a must-have for scholars, historians, and art enthusiasts alike.
