EDITORS COMMENTS
Costumes de Différents Pays, 'Homme Tongouse' by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse, created around 1797, is a captivating and historically significant engraving that showcases the traditional attire of an indigenous man from Manchuria or Tungus region of Asia. The full-length image depicts a man, with a hand on his hip, dressed in traditional clothing that includes a long, flowing robe, a headdress adorned with feathers, and a quiver of arrows at his back. The man is shown looking away from the viewer, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the image. This hand-tinted engraving on paper is a part of the "Costumes de Differents Pays" series, which was produced 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 around the world. The 'Homme Tongouse' image is particularly noteworthy for its detailed and accurate representation of the man's clothing and accessories, which were likely based on firsthand observations and research. The man's attire includes a long, loose-fitting robe made of thick, textured fabric, which is secured at the waist with a belt. He wears a pair of leggings or trousers, and his feet are covered in moccasins. The headdress on his head is made of animal hide and adorned with colorful feathers, while a pair of earrings and a necklace made of bones or shells add further ornamentation. The man carries a bow and quiver of arrows, which were essential tools for hunting and survival in the Tungus region. The image captures the essence of the man's connection to the land and his traditional way of life, making it a valuable historical and ethnographic record. This beautiful and intricately detailed image is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and diversity that exists around the world.
