EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the indigenous population of Xieng Hong in Laos, adorned in their exquisite traditional costumes. The image captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of this community. Each individual is dressed impeccably, wearing a combination of garments that reflect their unique identity. Over their jackets, they don velvet chests embellished with intricate trimmings. Their lower halves are clothed in either skirts or short pants, perfectly complementing their overall attire. To complete the ensemble, they wear small caps adorned with decorative elements. The attention to detail and craftsmanship evident in these costumes is truly remarkable. Every element seems carefully chosen to express both personal style and cultural significance. Through this engraving, we are transported back to 1866-1868 when Francis Garnier embarked on his exploration voyage through Indochina. Published in "Le tour du monde" by Edouard Charton and edited by Hachette Paris in 1872, this engraving serves as a valuable historical document capturing an era long gone but not forgotten. It is part of the Selva Collection and belongs to a private collection today. Thanks to Leonard de Selva's photographical expertise and dedication to preserving art history, we can now appreciate this stunning piece from our own homes. This print invites us into the world of Xieng Hong's indigenous population and reminds us of the beauty found within diverse cultures across the globe.
