EDITORS COMMENTS
Poissarde de Bordeaux disputant avec un Md. l'huitres de la Tête de Buch" (Fishwife of Bordeaux arguing with a Master of the Oysters of La Tête de Buch), is an enchanting and evocative 18th-century print by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. Dating back to approximately 1797, this hand-colored engraving on paper showcases the vibrant costumes and daily life of the people from Bordeaux, Gironde, Aquitaine, France. The image captures a lively argument between a fishwife, dressed in a full-length, colorful apron adorned with intricate designs, and a master oysterman. She holds a large basket filled with fresh fish, while he gestures towards a cart filled with oysters. The rich details of their clothing, from the fur-trimmed hats and coats to the intricate patterns on their dresses, offer a glimpse into the fashion trends of the time. The scene takes place outdoors, with the rolling hills and verdant landscapes of Bordeaux serving as the backdrop. The ethnographic and anthropological significance of this print lies in its portrayal of the local people and their connection to their environment and livelihoods. The fishwife and oysterman are not just figures in a painting, but living, breathing representations of the culture and traditions of Bordeaux during the 18th century. This stunning work of art is a testament to the rich heritage of European history and the intricacies of daily life during the 1700s. It is a must-see for anyone interested in apparel, anthropology, or the history of fashion. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to have this precious piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of this engraving for generations to come.
