EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Maigreur; Thinness; Hagerkeit" is a remarkable piece of art from the 19th century. Created by the European School, this print showcases an illustration for "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" (Illustrated Vocabulary of Common Words in French, English, and German) by Armand Le Brun et al. The engraving beautifully captures the concept of thinness or maigreur in three different languages - French, English, and German. It serves as a visual representation of ordinary words that are essential to our vocabulary. The intricate details and precise lines bring life to each letter while showcasing the artistic talent of the European School. This artwork provides a glimpse into the knowledge and understanding people sought during that era. It reflects not only linguistic diversity but also cultural exchange between countries such as France, England (Great Britain), and Germany within Europe. As we admire this historical piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection today, it reminds us of how dictionaries were once treasured textbooks used to expand one's general knowledge. This engraving stands as a testament to human curiosity and our continuous pursuit of language proficiency across borders.
