EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Lancon; Sand-eel; Sandfisch" takes us back to the 19th century when knowledge was sought after through dictionaries and textbooks. Created by the European School, this illustration is part of a private collection that showcases the beauty of ordinary words. The artwork originates from Armand Le Brun et al's renowned publication, "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" published by Furne, Jouvet in approximately 1873. It offers a glimpse into the linguistic world of French, English, and German languages. The image features three distinct elements: Lancon (a term yet to be deciphered), Sand-eel (a slender fish found in sandy coastal areas), and Sandfisch (the German translation for sand eel). The intricate details captured in this engraving highlight the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during that era. As we delve into this historical piece of artistry, it reminds us of Europe's rich cultural heritage. From Germany to England and France – countries represented within its pages – we witness how language unites nations across borders. With its educational value combined with artistic finesse, this print serves as a reminder of our constant pursuit for knowledge throughout history. Whether you are an avid linguist or simply appreciate fine art aesthetics intertwined with learning materials like illustrated dictionaries – this enchanting engraving will surely captivate your imagination.
