EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Paysanne de Basle' (1797) is a captivating and intriguing work of art by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. This engraving, hand-tinted on paper, offers a glimpse into the agricultural life of the 18th century, specifically in Basle, Switzerland. The image depicts a female agricultural laborer, dressed in traditional attire, standing in the countryside. The Paysanne de Basle is shown wearing a long, full-length, hand-woven, and hand-spun woolen dress, with a high waistline and a wide, voluminous skirt. She wears a white apron, tied at the back, and a red headscarf, which is a common accessory for rural women in the region. In her hands, she holds a bag, likely used for carrying tools or produce. This work of art is a significant contribution to the field of ethnography and anthropology, as it provides a visual record of the clothing and customs of rural agricultural workers during this time period. It also offers a window into the daily life and work of people in Europe during the late 18th century. The rich colors and intricate details of the engraving make it a valuable addition to any collection of historic art or fashion clothing. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse's 'Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Paysanne de Basle' is a testament to the importance of preserving and documenting the diverse cultural heritage of the past. The image is a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the world around us and the importance of understanding and appreciating the various traditions and customs that make up our shared human history.
