EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of a young woman from the Canton of Valais in Switzerland during the 19th century. Dressed in traditional attire, she wears a fichu, a long scarf that covers the shoulders and chest, and a laced bodice that accentuates her figure. Underneath, she dons full petticoats and an apron, completing her outfit with a straw hat adorned with ribbons. The hat sits atop a muslin bonnet, adding an extra layer of protection from the sun and the elements. This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Georges Jacques Gatine after an illustration by Louis Marie Lante, is a stunning representation of the costumes of Various Countries, as depicted in the Paris publication, Costumes de Divers Pays, in 1827. The intricate details of the young woman's clothing and accessories are beautifully captured in this engraving, providing a glimpse into the past and the rich cultural heritage of Valais, Switzerland during the 19th century. The young woman's expression is serene and confident, reflecting the strength and resilience of the women of Valais, who were known for their hardworking nature and their ability to adapt to the challenging terrain and climate of the region. This image is a testament to the enduring beauty and tradition of Swiss folklore, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the history and culture of our past.
