EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Jarre; Jar; Wasserkrug" takes us back to the 19th century when knowledge was captured in beautifully illustrated dictionaries. The artwork is part of a private collection and showcases an illustration from the renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. In this particular print, we are introduced to the French word "Jarre" its English equivalent "Jar" and its German translation "Wasserkrug". The intricate details of the engraving highlight a variety of jars used for storing food supplies. This image not only serves as a visual representation but also provides valuable vocabulary for those interested in learning multiple languages. The historical significance of this piece lies in its contribution to education during that era. Illustrated dictionaries like these were widely used as textbooks across Europe, including Germany and England. They played a crucial role in expanding general knowledge by providing ordinary words with their corresponding translations. As we admire this remarkable artwork from the 19th century, it reminds us of how language has evolved over time while emphasizing the importance of preserving cultural heritage through art.
