EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Paysannes du Pérou' (1797) is an engraving by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse that showcases the traditional attire of agricultural workers from various regions, including Peru. This image, created during the late 18th century, offers a unique glimpse into the clothing and customs of agricultural laborers from different continents. The focus of this print is on the Peruvian peasants, depicted in a full-length scene. The women are shown wearing long, flowing skirts made of brightly colored fabric, often adorned with intricate patterns. Their blouses are simple, with high necklines and long sleeves. The men are dressed in loose-fitting shirts and trousers, often with a sash or belt at the waist. Both men and women are barefoot, their feet covered only by the earth and grass beneath them. The setting of the print is an agricultural landscape, with farmhands working in the fields. The furniture and tools in the background suggest a rural scene, with children playing nearby. The print is hand-tinted, adding vibrant colors to the already intricate details of the clothing and setting. This print is an important historical and ethnographic record, offering insights into the lives of agricultural workers from different parts of the world during the late 18th century. The attention to detail in the clothing and setting reflects the meticulous research and observation of the creators, Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the past and the enduring fascination with the diversity of human traditions.
