EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Morue; Cod-fish; Stockfisch" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of knowledge and exploration. Created by an unknown European School artist, this print is part of a private collection. The illustration was originally featured in the renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. Published around 1873 by Furne, Jouvet, this comprehensive dictionary aimed to bridge language barriers between French, English, and German speakers. Intriguingly detailed, the engraving showcases three different species of fish: morue (cod), cod-fish (stockfish), and stockfisch. Each fish is meticulously depicted with precision and accuracy. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation but also provides valuable information about these marine creatures. As we explore this piece further, it becomes evident that it symbolizes more than just aquatic life. It represents an era when books were treasured sources of knowledge and dictionaries served as essential tools for learning languages. With its historical significance and artistic charm, this print transports us back in time while reminding us of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage.
