EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Cameleon; Chameleon; Chamaleon" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was created for Armand Le Brun et al's renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" published by Furne and Jouvet around 1873. The image beautifully depicts a chameleon with its vibrant colors and intricate patterns. This reptile is known for its ability to change its skin color according to its surroundings, making it a fascinating creature of nature. The engraving not only captures the physical attributes of the chameleon but also serves as an educational tool for those seeking knowledge about wildlife animals. The inclusion of this illustration in an illustrated dictionary emphasizes its significance in expanding general knowledge. It highlights how books like these were instrumental in providing comprehensive information on various subjects during that era. Originating from Germany but widely recognized across Europe and beyond, this engraving represents the rich cultural heritage shared among different nations within the European Union. Additionally, it symbolizes unity through language as it features translations of words related to chameleons in French and English. Overall, this remarkable piece offers a glimpse into both artistic excellence and intellectual exploration prevalent during the late 19th century.
