EDITORS COMMENTS
(Iroquois Going to Discover), created by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur and LF Labrousse in the late 18th century, is a captivating and historically significant engraving from the "Costumes de Différents Pays" (Costumes of Different Countries) series. This full-length image showcases an Iroquois man in traditional Native American attire, standing confidently with a fierce expression, as he gazes out into the distance. The intricately detailed hand-tinted engraving on paper, produced in France, offers a glimpse into the clothing and accessories of the Iroquois people during the late 1700s. The man's outfit includes a long, fringed deerskin shirt, a breechcloth, and moccasins adorned with intricate beadwork. His hair is styled in a traditional Iroquois hairstyle, with a central part and long, loose locks falling over his shoulders. The engraving, which is part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's collection, is a valuable resource for anthropologists and ethnologists studying the history and culture of North American indigenous peoples. The image provides insight into the clothing and fashion trends of the time, as well as the unique cultural practices and traditions of the Iroquois people. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the engraving bring the subject to life, making it a stunning and important addition to any collection of historic art or ethnographic materials. The image's exterior setting, with its open sky and natural surroundings, adds to the sense of adventure and exploration, as the Iroquois man sets out on a journey to discover new lands and experiences. Overall, "Iroquois Allant a la Decouverte" is a captivating and historically significant work of art that offers a unique window into the past.
