EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Femmes d'Issinie Pilant du Riz' (Women of Issinie Pilant of the Rice Fields), c1797, is a captivating and historically significant engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. This beautiful and intricately detailed print, which dates back to the late 18th century, offers an ethnographic glimpse into the lives of women from Issinie Pilant, an East African community. The image depicts four women, each dressed in traditional Abyssinian attire, as they go about their daily tasks. One woman is carrying a baby on her back, while another cradles an infant in her arms. The women are shown outside a hut, surrounded by lush vegetation and what appears to be a rice field. The women's clothing is vibrant and colorful, with intricate patterns and designs that reflect their cultural heritage. The print, which is hand-tinted and hand-colored on paper, is a testament to the artistic skill and attention to detail of its creators. The women are depicted in full length, providing a comprehensive view of their traditional costumes. The print is also an important historical record, offering a glimpse into the lives of indigenous peoples in Africa during the 18th century. The print, titled 'Costumes de Différents Pays' (Costumes of Different Countries), is part of a larger series that showcases the clothing and customs of various countries and peoples around the world. The series was produced in France during the late 18th century and reflects the growing interest in ethnography and ethnology during this period. Today, the print is an invaluable resource for scholars and historians, providing insights into the lives and cultures of people from different parts of the world during a time when such information was scarce.
