EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays," or "Costumes of Different Countries," is a remarkable collection of engravings created by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse in the late 18th century. This particular image, titled "Marchand de Viandes à Naples" or "Butcher in Naples," showcases the traditional attire of a Neapolitan butcher and his boy during this era. The full-length engraving, hand-tinted on paper, offers a vivid and authentic portrayal of the Neapolitan people and their daily lives. The butcher is depicted in a voluminous, red apron, worn over a pair of high-waisted breeches and a white shirt. His broad-brimmed hat, adorned with a ribbon, completes his traditional Neapolitan outfit. In his right hand, he holds a large butcher's knife, while his left hand rests on a large piece of meat. The butcher boy, standing beside him, wears a similar outfit, but with a shorter apron and a smaller hat. His task is to assist the butcher, carrying a large basket of meat on his head. The vibrant colors and intricate details in this hand-tinted engraving provide a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Naples during the 1790s, offering a valuable ethnographic and historical record. This image is part of the "Costumes de Différents Pays" series, which was widely popular in Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries. The collection, which includes over 200 engravings, showcases the traditional clothing of various countries and continents, making it an essential resource for the study of anthropology, ethnology, and the history of fashion. This particular image, "Marchand de Viandes à Naples," is part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's extensive collection and is a testament to the museum's commitment to preserving and showcasing the world's artistic and cultural heritage.
