EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Obusier; Howitzer; Haubitze" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of military artillery. The print showcases an illustration from Armand Le Brun et al's renowned book, "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" which aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of everyday words in French, English, and German. The focal point of this artwork is an intricately detailed depiction of three different types of cannons: the obusier, howitzer, and haubitze. Each cannon is meticulously rendered with precision and accuracy. This image serves as a valuable resource for those seeking knowledge about weaponry during that era. The historical significance of this print extends beyond its educational value. It offers a window into the geopolitical landscape at the time, highlighting Germany's role as a major player in military technology. Furthermore, it underscores Europe's rich cultural diversity by featuring contributions from France (the book's origin), England (where it was published), and Germany (the subject matter). As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of the importance placed on expanding one's general knowledge through illustrated dictionaries like these. This engraving stands as both an artistic representation and a testament to humanity's continuous quest for understanding across borders and languages.
