EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays: 'Marchand de Fruits à Naples' (1797) by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse is an exquisite 18th-century engraving that offers a captivating glimpse into the world of European ethnography and anthropology. This full-length image depicts a fruit seller, likely Italian, expertly balancing a large basket filled with an array of cherries on his head, accompanied by a faithful dog. The man wears traditional breeches and a colorful, patterned shirt, adding to the rich visual texture of the scene. This engraving, part of the series 'Costumes de Differents Pays,' is a testament to the fascination with the exotic and the different that characterized the European cultural landscape of the time. The intricate details of the clothing, the vibrant colors, and the authenticity of the setting make this work a valuable historical and artistic artifact. The image also highlights the importance of local people and their traditional attire in the context of the broader European society. The fruit seller's profession, his demeanor, and the cherries he offers for sale all serve to illustrate the daily life and customs of the people of Naples during the late 18th century. This hand-colored engraving on paper, a masterpiece by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of fashion, ethnography, or the arts. It is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
