EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Paysans d'Hanac, en Bohême' (1797) is an exquisite hand-tinted engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, showcasing the traditional attire of agricultural workers from Hanakia, in the Czech region of Bohemia. The captivating image transports us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the daily lives of these rural laborers. The full-length illustration depicts a group of farmers, dressed in their distinctive costumes, gathered around a wooden table laden with local produce and a steaming jug. The men wear heavy coats, with fur trimmings and high collars, while their boots, adorned with intricate designs, rest on the floor. The women, dressed in long, green dresses, complete their outfits with colourful aprons and headscarves. The scene exudes an air of camaraderie and enjoyment, as the farmers engage in a moment of amusement, perhaps sharing stories or a drink from the jug. The engraving, with its meticulous attention to detail, provides a valuable record of the agricultural workers' attire and the material culture of the time. The ethnographic significance of this image extends beyond the borders of France, as it offers a unique insight into the clothing traditions of Eastern Europe during the 18th century. The use of hand-colouring and tinting adds depth and vibrancy to the already intricate engraving, making it a valuable addition to any collection focused on anthropology, fashion, or the history of agriculture. This stunning piece, created by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse in 1797, remains a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Czech Republic and the enduring allure of traditional rural life.
