EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Chalet; Swiss cottage; Schweizerhutte" takes us back to the 19th century in Europe. The print showcases a charming Swiss chalet nestled amidst picturesque surroundings. This enchanting artwork is part of a private collection and was created by an unknown European School artist. The illustration originally appeared in the renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. Published around 1873 by Furne, Jouvet & Cie. , this dictionary aimed to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of ordinary words in French, English, and German. The image transports us to the heart of Switzerland's countryside with its traditional architecture and serene ambiance. It beautifully captures the essence of a chalet - a quintessential symbol of Alpine living. With its sloping roof adorned with decorative woodwork and flower boxes adorning the windowsills, this idyllic dwelling exudes warmth and coziness. As we admire this exquisite engraving from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it serves as a reminder of our fascination with different cultures and languages throughout history. Through illustrated dictionaries like these, people sought knowledge not only for practical purposes but also for their own enrichment. This remarkable piece invites us on an imaginative journey into the past while celebrating both artistic expression and linguistic exploration.
