"Traditional Costume of a Fish Seller of Dieppe" is a 19th-century illustration by French artist Louis-Marie Lante that depicts a woman in the traditional attire of a fish seller from Dieppe, a coastal town in the Normandy region of France. Louis-Marie Lante (1789–1871) was known for his detailed and colorful illustrations of costumes and fashion, which provide valuable insights into the clothing styles and social customs of his time.

The illustration is part of Lante's broader body of work that captures the regional costumes of France, reflecting the artist's interest in ethnography and the diversity of cultural expressions within the country. His works often served as both artistic representations and ethnographic records, capturing the nuances of local dress that were characteristic of various regions and professions.

In "Traditional Costume of a Fish Seller of Dieppe," Lante's attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the costume's components, which typically include a headpiece, bodice, skirt, apron, and accessories that would have been commonly worn by women engaged in the trade of selling fish in the marketplaces of Dieppe during the early 19th century. The illustration not only showcases the fashion of the period but also reflects the socio-economic context of the region, highlighting the role of women in the local economy and the importance of the fishing industry to the town's identity.

Lante's work is significant for its historical and cultural value, as it preserves a visual record of traditional French costumes at a time when industrialization and urbanization were beginning to transform society. The illustration is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the essence of period attire and contributes to our understanding of the daily life and regional identity in 19th-century France.
