EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Idiot" is a remarkable piece of art from the 19th century. Created by an unknown European School artist, this print is part of a private collection. The artwork was originally intended to be an illustration for the book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. , published around 1873. The image depicts the word "idiot" in three different languages - French, English, and German - surrounded by other ordinary words. With its intricate details and precise engravings, this piece showcases the artistic skills prevalent during that era. It provides a glimpse into how dictionaries were illustrated back then and serves as a valuable historical reference. The print also highlights the cultural exchange between different European countries during the 19th century. It represents Germany's contribution to knowledge with its inclusion of German vocabulary alongside French and English. Overall, this engraving offers viewers a unique opportunity to explore language through visual representation. Its timeless appeal makes it not only an exquisite work of art but also a significant artifact from the late nineteenth century.
