EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays," or "Costumes of Different Countries," is an engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, created around 1797. This full-length image depicts a traditional Argentinean priest-healer from Tierra del Fuego, wearing an intricately designed costume representative of his culture and role. The priest-healer is shown standing in an exterior setting, gesturing with one hand while holding a herbal remedy in the other. His body is adorned with various accessories, including a flower headdress, leg ornaments, and footwear made of animal hides, all of which are typical of the indigenous people of the region. The costume is hand-tinted, adding vibrant colors and details to the already intricate design. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse were prominent figures in the world of 18th-century French art and ethnography. Their work, "Costumes de Différents Pays," is a significant contribution to the field of anthropology and ethnology, providing valuable insights into the clothing and customs of various countries and cultures during this time. This particular image, titled "Pretre Medicin de la Terre de Feu," or "Priest-Healer of Tierra del Fuego," offers a glimpse into the life and traditions of the indigenous peoples of Argentina. The detail and care put into the creation of this hand-colored engraving on paper serve as a testament to the artists' dedication to accurately documenting and preserving the heritage of different communities. Today, this rare and beautiful work is part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire appreciation for the rich cultural history of the past.
