EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Homme et Femme de l'Isle de Zante' (1797) is an exquisite hand-tinted engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, showcasing the distinctive attire of a man and a woman from the Island of Zante, located in the Ionian Sea between Italy and Greece. This work of art, published in France during the late 18th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into the traditional clothing of this European continent. The man is depicted wearing a coat with a high standing collar, a waistcoat, and breeches, or pantaloons, completed with a bicorne hat adorned with a black ribbon. The woman is dressed in a full-length gown, featuring a high waist, voluminous skirt, and a shawl draped over her shoulders. Both figures are portrayed standing side by side, in an outdoor setting, with the man positioned on the left and the woman on the right. This engraving, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a testament to the rich and diverse fashion trends of the 18th century. The intricate details and vibrant colors, which were hand-applied to the print, further enhance its allure and historical significance. The work is an essential addition to any collection focusing on apparel, ethnography, or the history of art. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, a renowned French artist and ethnologist, dedicated his career to documenting the various costumes of different peoples and countries. His meticulous observations and artistic interpretations continue to captivate scholars, fashion enthusiasts, and art lovers alike, offering a window into the past and the rich cultural heritage of Europe.
