EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Orgueil; Pride; Stolz" by the European School in the 19th century. Housed in a private collection, this artwork is a visual representation of pride and its various interpretations across different languages. Originally created as an illustration for "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. , published around 1873, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of pride. It forms part of a comprehensive dictionary that encompasses French, English, and German words. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship evident in this piece make it truly remarkable. The artist's ability to convey emotions through their work is commendable. This particular image represents one of the seven deadly sins - pride - with elements such as pretension and vanity intertwined within. As we delve into the late 19th-century Germany depicted here on the Europe map, we are reminded of how language can both unite and differentiate us across borders. From England to France to Germany, each country has its own unique interpretation of pride. This print not only serves as a beautiful decorative piece but also offers valuable insight into our collective knowledge and understanding of language throughout history. It reminds us that dictionaries are not merely tools for translation but windows into cultures past and present. Bridgeman Images has done justice to this extraordinary artwork from Fine Art Finder by capturing its essence in stunning detail without compromising its integrity or commercial use restrictions.
