EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Hopital; Hospital; Spital" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of medicine and healthcare during that time. Created by the European School, this artwork is part of a private collection. The illustration 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 book aimed to provide an illustrated dictionary of ordinary words in French, English, and German. Intriguingly detailed with precision and finesse, the engraving showcases various elements related to hospitals. From doctors attending patients to medical equipment scattered across the scene - every aspect has been meticulously depicted. The presence of Asklepios - the Greek god associated with healing and medicine - adds a touch of mythology to this historical representation. It serves as a reminder of how ancient beliefs influenced medical practices even in more modern times. This print not only offers insight into hospital settings but also provides valuable information about language learning during that era. It stands as a testament to our continuous pursuit of knowledge throughout history. Displayed against a backdrop representing Europe's map from that period, this artwork encapsulates both cultural diversity and shared experiences within healthcare systems across different countries like Germany and England. Overall, this engraving is not just visually striking but also holds immense educational value for those interested in exploring medical history or linguistic studies from the late 19th century.
