EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays: 'Bayadère' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse (c1797) is an exquisite hand-tinted engraving that offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and diverse world of 18th-century anthropology and ethnography. This image, part of the 'Costumes de Differents Pays' series, depicts a Bayadère dancer from India, a devadasi or temple dancer, standing gracefully with her legs apart and bare feet on the exterior of a colorful, intricately-patterned temple wall. The Bayadère, dressed in a vibrant green costume adorned with gold jewelry and intricate beadwork, wears a nose ring and multiple bracelets on her arms. Her bare feet, adorned with only anklets, are a testament to the traditional practice of going barefoot in Indian dance. The dancer's body is adorned with a variety of ornaments, including bangles, earrings, and necklaces, adding to the overall opulence of the image. This full-length engraving, created by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, was produced in France during the late 1700s and is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). The 'Costumes de Differents Pays' series, which includes depictions of people from various continents, reflects the growing interest in exoticism and ethnography during the 18th century. The series showcases the artists' meticulous attention to detail and their ability to capture the essence of different cultures and traditions through their art. This stunning hand-colored engraving on paper is a testament to the rich heritage of world art and offers a unique window into the past. The image continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details, vibrant colors, and the timeless beauty of the Bayadère dancer.
