EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différent Pays: 'Artisanne de Marseille/Artisanne d'Arles' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur (c1797) is an intriguing and captivating hand-tinted engraving that offers a glimpse into the diverse and rich textile traditions of Europe during the late 18th century. The image features two French women, one from Marseille and the other from Arles, both proudly showcasing their regional attire. The Artisanne de Marseille wears a full-length dress in a vibrant pink hue, adorned with intricate white floral patterns. She accessorizes her outfit with a simple white apron, a traditional headscarf, and a small hat with a pink ribbon. Her outfit reflects the Mediterranean influence of the Marseille region, located in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur area of France. The Artisanne d'Arles, on the other hand, wears a more rustic outfit, with a long, loose-fitting brown dress, a red apron, and a white bonnet. Her attire represents the rural traditions of Arles, a city located in the same region but known for its agricultural heritage. This engraving, titled 'Costumes de Different Pays,' is a testament to the rich cultural diversity that existed within Europe during the late 18th century. It also highlights the importance of textiles and clothing as a means of expressing identity and heritage. The image was created by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, a prominent French artist and ethnographer, and is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). The hand-tinted engraving on paper is a valuable addition to the museum's ethnographic and historic collections, providing insight into the fashion and clothing trends of the time.
