EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Chamois; Gemse" takes us back to the 19th century when knowledge was sought after through books and dictionaries. Created by the European School, this illustration is part of a private collection and showcases a chamois, also known as a gemse in German. The artwork was originally featured in "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. Published around 1873 by Furne Jouvet, this illustrated dictionary aimed to provide readers with ordinary words from French, English, and German languages. The intricate details of the engraving highlight the beauty of these mountain-dwelling creatures. The chamois gracefully stands on rocky terrain while its majestic horns curl upwards towards the sky. This print serves as both an educational tool for language learners and an artistic representation of nature's wonders. As we admire this piece from the 19th century Germany-European Union era, it reminds us of how far we have come in terms of knowledge acquisition. In today's digital age where information is readily available at our fingertips, it's important to appreciate historical artifacts like this engraving that capture moments from a time when learning required dedication and exploration. Overall, this print invites us to delve into the world of vocabulary while appreciating artistry that transcends time.
