"Hab.t de la Savoie" is an 18th-century anonymous print that was part of a set of playing cards depicting the costumes of foreign peoples. The image showcases a young man holding a stick and leading a small dog, with two other figures standing behind him. This card, part of a set, offers a glimpse into the fashion and social customs of the Savoy region, which was a duchy in the northwestern Alps. The detailed depiction of the figures' clothing provides insight into the regional attire of the time, and the card's inclusion in a game deck highlights the intersection of entertainment and cultural representation in 18th-century Europe.
