EDITORS COMMENTS
or "The Favorite of the King of Persia," is an exquisite 18th-century engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, created around 1797. This work of art showcases a beautifully dressed female figure, believed to represent an Iranian courtier, leaning against a column in an outdoor setting. The richly colored and hand-tinted engraving on paper transports us to another time and place, offering a glimpse into the exotic world of Persian culture during the late 18th century. The woman wears an intricately designed costume, featuring a vibrant, colorful dress adorned with geometric patterns and floral motifs. Her headdress, or head dress, is equally impressive, with a tall, columnar structure adorned with delicate ornamentation. The woman's posture is graceful, as she casually leans on one elbow, looking away from the viewer, adding an air of mystery and allure to the image. This engraving, titled "Costumes de differents pays," or "Costumes of Different Countries," is a testament to the ethnographic and ethnological interests of the time. It was likely published in France and is now part of the permanent collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). The exterior setting, with its pillars and columned architecture, further emphasizes the exotic and foreign nature of the subject matter, making it a valuable addition to any collection focusing on 18th-century art, fashion, and anthropology.
