EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays: 'Sheik de l'Arabie Heureuse' (1797) is an exquisite and intriguing hand-tinted engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. This stunning full-length portrait depicts a Middle Eastern sheik, dressed in traditional Arabian attire, standing against an exterior backdrop. The sheik's outfit consists of a long, flowing robe, a cape adorned with intricate patterns, and a tall, conical headdress, all rendered in rich colors and detailed textures. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse's 'Costumes de Differents Pays' series was published in France during the late 18th century, showcasing the diverse clothing styles of various countries and ethnicities. This particular engraving, titled 'Sheik de l'Arabie Heureuse' (Sheik of the Happy Arabia), offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and culture of the Middle East during this period. The hand-tinted engraving on paper has been preserved in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and is a valuable addition to their extensive collection of historic art and ethnographic materials. The image, with its striking composition and vibrant colors, continues to captivate viewers and scholars alike, providing a window into the rich and complex history of the Middle East and its people.
