'NOBLES MODERNE ET ANCIEN DU PEROU. / FEMMES NOBLES, PERUVIENNES MODERNE ET ANCIENNE.'(Modern and Ancient Nobles of Peru. / Modern and Ancient Noble Peruvian Women.) The firt print portrays Peruvian nobility, juxtaposing then contemporary and historical attire. The figures are adorned in garments that reflect the rich tapestry of Peruvian history, with the modern noble's attire indicating European influence, while the ancient noble's regalia embodies the traditional Incan heritage, characterized by vibrant textiles and elaborate headdresses. The second illustration captures the elegance and status of Peruvian noblewomen, contrasting the then modern with the past. The modern noblewoman's fashion suggests the adaptation of Western styles, while the ancient attire, with its intricate patterns and symbolic accessories, evokes the rich lineage of the indigenous cultures of Peru.Made by Labrousse after Jacques Grasset de Saint Sauveur.Medium: Handcoloured line and aquatint etching on hand laid paper.Sheet size: 20.5 x 26.1 cm (8.07 x 10.28 inch).
