EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différent Pays, 'Homme des Landes de Bordeaux Mettant ses Échasses' (Different Costumes of the Man from the Landes of Bordeaux Putting on His Stilts, c1797) is a captivating and intriguing hand-tinted engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. This beautiful work of art, created in the late 18th century, offers a glimpse into the unique customs and traditional attire of the people from the Landes region of Bordeaux, France. The image depicts a man, dressed in the local costume, standing indoors by a fireplace. He is in the process of putting on his échasses, or stilts, a distinctive part of the traditional Landes costume. The man's clothing includes a long, full-length dress, a gaiter that covers his legs, and a wide-brimmed hat. The dress is adorned with intricate patterns and bright colors, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the region. The background of the image shows barrels stacked against the wall, a common sight in the wine-producing region of Bordeaux. The man's surroundings are simple yet warm and inviting, conveying a sense of comfort and familiarity. This engraving is an important historical and ethnographic document, providing valuable insights into the clothing and customs of a specific region and time period. It is a testament to the diversity and richness of European culture during the 18th century. The work is part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and is a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the world's artistic and cultural heritage.
