EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled 'Costumes de Différents Pays' or 'Costumes of Different Countries,' is a stunning example of 18th-century ethnographic art from the collection of Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. Created around 1797, this full-length engraving depicts a 'Paysan de Quito,' or a Quito farmer, from South America. The agricultural laborer is shown in his traditional attire, carrying a large load on his back, with a hand gesturing in a casual manner. The vibrant and intricately detailed hand-tinted engraving showcases the rich colors and textures of the farmer's clothing, which includes a long-sleeved shirt, a wide-brimmed hat, and a colorful sash. The farmer's sturdy boots and the tools slung over his shoulder indicate his occupation in agriculture. This image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 18th century and the growing interest in ethnography and anthropology during this period. The print provides a glimpse into the lives of people from different continents and sheds light on their unique customs and traditions. The exterior setting of the image further emphasizes the rural and agricultural nature of the farmer's life. This historic artwork, with its rich details and authentic portrayal of a Quito farmer, is a valuable addition to any collection of 18th-century art, fashion, or ethnography. It invites us to explore the diverse world of the past and appreciate the beauty and complexity of human cultures.
