EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Ecrevisse; Crawfish; Bachkrebs" takes us back to the 19th century and showcases the intricate beauty of European wildlife. The print is part of a private collection and was created by an unknown European School artist. The illustration was originally featured in "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al in 1873. It serves as a visual aid for understanding common words in French, English, and German languages. In this particular artwork, we see a detailed depiction of an ecrevisse (French), crawfish (English), or bachkrebs (German). The artist's attention to detail brings out the unique characteristics of this crustacean species. Its slender body with elongated claws is beautifully captured through delicate lines and shading techniques. As we admire this engraving from the late 19th century, it reminds us of the importance of knowledge and language acquisition. Dictionaries like "Le Vocabulaire Illustre" were valuable resources during that time period for individuals seeking to expand their linguistic abilities. This print not only provides insight into historical educational tools but also celebrates the diverse fauna found across Europe. Through its meticulous craftsmanship and artistic flair, it invites viewers to appreciate both nature's wonders and human intellectual pursuits.
