Costumes de Différent Pays, 'Femme d'Agen,' c1797: A Visual Exploration of 18th Century French Fashion and Cultural Diversity This engraving, titled 'Femme d'Agen' from Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur's 'Costumes de Different Pays,' dates back to the late 18th century, around 1797. The image, now held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), showcases the distinctive attire of a woman from Agen, a city located in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, a renowned French ethnographer and artist, meticulously documented various costumes from across continents, including Europe. His extensive collection, which includes this remarkable piece, offers a unique window into the fashion and cultural practices of different regions and communities during the 18th century. The 'Femme d'Agen' is depicted standing in a full-length profile view, wearing a traditional outfit that reflects her regional identity. She dons a striped apron, which is tied around her waist, and a striped skirt that reaches the ground. The woman completes her ensemble with a headscarf, adorned with intricate patterns, and a headdress that features a colorful design. Her hand-tinted engraving on paper adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a visual treat for art and fashion enthusiasts. This artwork not only represents the rich heritage of French fashion but also offers insights into the diverse cultural practices of the 18th century. By examining the intricacies of the 'Femme d'Agen's' costume, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the historical significance of clothing and its role in shaping personal and communal identities.
