EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Homme Samoyède' (1797) is an intriguing and captivating work of art by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. This hand-tinted engraving on paper, published in Paris during the late 18th century, showcases the traditional attire of an indigenous Samoyed man from Russia. The image offers a unique glimpse into the ethnic and cultural diversity of the time, showcasing the richness and vibrancy of global fashion and costume traditions. The Samoyed man is depicted in a full-length portrait, standing confidently outdoors with a bow and arrow in hand. He wears a thick, fur-lined parka, adorned with intricate patterns and fringes, which is characteristic of the Samoyed people's traditional clothing. The man's posture is strong and proud, with one hand resting on his hip, conveying a sense of strength and resilience. This engraving is part of the larger series, 'Costumes de Differents Pays,' which was published in France during the late 18th century. The series aimed to document and preserve the diverse clothing styles and traditions of various countries and ethnic groups. The hand-colored engraving adds an additional layer of detail and richness to the image, making it a valuable historical and artistic artifact. Today, this beautiful work of art is part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's collection, where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the rich and diverse history of global fashion and costume traditions. The 'Homme Samoyède' image is a testament to the importance of preserving and celebrating the unique cultural heritage of different peoples and communities throughout history.
