EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays," or "Costumes of Different Countries," is a fascinating and historically significant work by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, created around 1797. This beautiful hand-tinted engraving on paper depicts a full-length portrait of a Tahitian king, known as the "Roi de Taïti," or "King of Tahiti." The image captures the essence of the Otaheite Windward Islands in French Polynesia during the late 18th century. The king is depicted wearing an intricately designed headdress made of feathers, shells, and other natural materials, which is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the indigenous people. His clothing, made of colorful fabric, is also adorned with various decorative elements, reflecting the unique fashion of the region. This work is a valuable contribution to the fields of anthropology and ethnology, providing a glimpse into the lives and customs of the local people during a time when European exploration and colonization were shaping the Pacific Islands. The large-format engraving, with its hand-colored details, is a stunning example of the artistic techniques of the time and serves as an important historical record. The "Costumes de Différents Pays" series, which includes this image of the Tahitian king, is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the diverse and complex history of the world's cultures.
