about the cover illustration

The figure on the cover of Deep Learning with PyTorch, Second Edition is captioned “Kabardinien,” or “Kabardian.” The illustration is taken from a collection of dress costumes from various countries by Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur (1757–1810), titled Costumes Civils actuels de tous les Peuples connus, published in France in 1788. This illustration is finely drawn and colored by hand.
