EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Marchands de Gateaux de Petersbourg'" and created by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur around 1797, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of 18th-century fashion and everyday life. The image showcases a couple from Russia, specifically from Petersburg or Saint Petersburg, which was then part of the Russian Empire. The man, dressed in a long, double-breasted coat with a fur collar and a tall, cylindrical hat, represents the traditional attire of a cake seller or merchant from this region. His basket is brimming with colorful, hand-tinted cakes, adding a delightful touch to the scene. The woman, dressed in a full-length, hand-colored gown with a high waist, voluminous skirt, and a shawl draped over her shoulders, embodies the elegance and refinement of the era. Her attire, a testament to the rich textiles and intricate designs popular during this time, is a stark contrast to the man's more practical clothing. The exterior setting of the image, with its quaint buildings and bustling market scene, further enhances the authenticity of the scene. This engraving, originally published in France, is an invaluable resource for anthropologists, ethnologists, and fashion historians, providing insights into the clothing and occupations of people from different countries during the 18th century. This beautiful and intricately detailed hand-tinted engraving is a treasure from the past, offering a captivating look into the lives of people from Petersburg, Russia, during the late 18th century. It is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a testament to its historical significance and artistic merit.
