EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Hollandais' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur is an exquisite hand-tinted engraving from the late 18th century, showcasing the traditional attire of a Dutch man. The full-length portrait depicts an individual standing in a coastal setting, wearing the distinctive clothing of the Netherlands. He dons a high-collared, long-sleeved shirt, a knee-length, pleated skirt called a "breeches," and a wide-brimmed hat. In his hands, he holds a pipe, adding to the relaxed, outdoor atmosphere of the scene. The background of the image features a quaint Dutch landscape, complete with sailboats docked at the shore. The boats, along with the man's attire, provide a glimpse into the maritime culture and lifestyle of the Netherlands during the 18th century. Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur was a renowned French artist and ethnographer who created the "Costumes de Differents Pays" series, which documented the clothing and customs of various countries and continents. This particular print, titled 'Hollandais,' is a testament to his dedication to capturing the unique aspects of different cultures. The hand-colored engraving, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on anthropology, ethnography, or the history of fashion. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the image to life, allowing viewers to experience a piece of European history and appreciate the rich cultural heritage of the Netherlands.
