EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Etonnement; Astonishment; Erstaunen" takes us back to the 19th century, a time when knowledge was sought after through dictionaries and textbooks. The engraving, created by an unknown European School artist, is part of a private collection and showcases the concept of astonishment in three different languages - French, English, and German. The illustration was originally featured in Armand Le Brun's "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" a comprehensive dictionary that aimed to bridge language barriers across Europe. Published by Furne, Jouvet around 1873, this book became an invaluable resource for those seeking to expand their linguistic horizons. Intriguingly detailed and expertly crafted, the engraving captures the essence of astonishment as a universal human emotion. It serves as a reminder that regardless of our cultural backgrounds or nationalities within the European Union or beyond its borders, we all experience moments of wonderment. As we gaze upon this historical artwork from Germany's North region (also known as Northern Germany), it evokes feelings of curiosity about our shared past. This image not only represents an era but also symbolizes unity amidst diversity within Europe. With England's influence evident through its inclusion in both text and map references on Great Britain (GB) and United Kingdom (UK), this print reminds us how language connects nations while preserving their unique identities. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with a visual treasure that sparks contemplation about history's impact on our present-day understanding.
