EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Vaurien; Truant; Taugenichts" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in a world of knowledge and language. Created by an unknown European School artist, this print is part of a private collection. The artwork was originally published as an illustration for "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al in around 1873. This comprehensive illustrated dictionary aimed to bridge the linguistic gap between French, English, and German speakers. With its intricate details and expertly crafted lines, the engraving transports us to a time when dictionaries were cherished sources of information. It reminds us of the importance of expanding our vocabulary and understanding different languages. The image also hints at cultural diversity within Europe. While it represents Germany with references to North Germany and Germanic influences, it also acknowledges England's presence with mentions of Great Britain and British Isles. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from the late 19th century, we are reminded that knowledge knows no boundaries or borders. It serves as a testament to humanity's continuous pursuit of learning and understanding across nations throughout history.
