EDITORS COMMENTS
This costume plate, titled "Armenien" by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, dates back to the late 18th to early 19th century. The intricately detailed engraving showcases a young Armenian boy dressed in traditional attire, standing outside in a scenic location. The full-length portrait displays the boy wearing a long, fur-trimmed coat with a bright red under-tunic and a tall, conical hat adorned with intricate patterns. The coat is also adorned with a decorative blade on the chest, a common feature in Armenian clothing. The plate is hand-colored, adding vibrant hues to the boy's clothing and the surrounding landscape. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse were prominent French artists and ethnographers known for their extensive work documenting the costumes and traditions of various peoples around the world. This plate is a testament to their dedication to preserving the rich cultural heritage of Asia, specifically Armenia. The meticulous attention to detail in the engraving and the use of hand-coloring techniques adds to the authenticity and beauty of the artwork. The plate is an important historical document, providing a glimpse into the fashion and lifestyle of Armenian boys during the 18th and 19th centuries. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a window into the past and the diverse cultural traditions that continue to influence the world today. This rare and beautiful artwork is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the history and heritage of Armenia and the broader Asian continent.
