EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Levrier; Greyhound; Windhund" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was created for Armand Le Brun et al's renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" published by Furne and Jouvet around 1873. The engraving beautifully captures the elegance and grace of a greyhound or levrier in three different languages - French, English, and German. It serves as an illustration to expand one's vocabulary with ordinary words related to this magnificent breed of dog. Dating back to the late 19th century, this piece offers us a glimpse into the knowledge-seeking culture prevalent during that era. As we delve into its intricate details and meticulous craftsmanship, we are transported to a time when dictionaries were treasured possessions used for educational purposes. With its origins rooted in Germany but widely appreciated across Europe including England and France, this enchanting engraving represents not only linguistic diversity but also cultural exchange within the continent. Its inclusion in textbooks and illustrated dictionaries further emphasizes its significance as an educational tool. Through Bridgeman Images' lens capturing this remarkable artwork from Fine Art Finder's collection, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and language barriers while preserving historical knowledge for generations to come.
