EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Gustave de Galard takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the traditional costumes of shepherds in Landes, France. The print captures a shepherd and shepherdess dressed in their customary attire as they skillfully navigate on stilts known as echasses. The image transports us to a time when rural life was deeply intertwined with nature and tradition. The couple's clothing reflects their connection to the land, with the shepherd wearing a cape and hat that shield him from the elements while tending his flock. His partner is adorned in a charming peasant dress, complete with scalloped edges and an elegant bonnet. The use of echasses adds an element of intrigue to this scene. These tall wooden stilts were commonly used by shepherds in Landes to traverse marshy terrain without sinking into the wet ground. It showcases their resourcefulness and adaptability within their environment. Galard's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical moment alive, allowing us to appreciate not only the beauty of these traditional costumes but also gain insight into the daily lives of these hardworking individuals. Displayed at Decorative Arts Museum in Paris, this enchanting engraving serves as a testament to France's rich cultural heritage and pays homage to those who have preserved its traditions throughout centuries past.
