EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving captures the essence of a young girl from the Canton of Thurgau, Switzerland during the 19th century. The girl is dressed in traditional attire, with a painted cloth cap, gorget, and sleeve cuffs adorning her outfit. The intricate details of her clothing are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the region. The young girl carries a basket filled with the bounty of the land, showcasing the main agricultural products of the area - pears, plums, and apples. The fruit represents the abundance and fertility of the Canton of Thurgau, which was renowned for its orchards and fruit production. The engraving is a beautiful reproduction of an original illustration by Louis Marie Lante, as depicted in his publication "Costumes de Divers Pays" or "Costumes of Various Countries," published in Paris in 1827. The illustration was later hand-engraved by Georges Jacques Gatine, who expertly captured the essence of the original artwork. The young girl's serene expression and the idyllic setting of the engraving transport us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the simple pleasures of rural life in 19th-century Switzerland. This image is a treasure trove of historical and cultural significance, providing a glimpse into the past and the unique traditions of the Canton of Thurgau.
