EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Origan; Origanum; Dosten" is a stunning piece of art from the 19th century. Created by the European School, this print showcases an illustration of the aromatic herb known as origanum or oregano. Part of a larger collection called "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" this artwork was featured in a French dictionary published in 1873. The book aimed to provide readers with illustrated definitions for commonly used words in French, English, and German. The intricate details of the engraving beautifully depict the delicate leaves and flowers of the origanum plant. This botanical masterpiece not only serves as a visual delight but also highlights its importance in seasoning and culinary practices. With its roots deeply embedded in natural history and botany, this artwork represents scientific knowledge during that time period. It reflects how dictionaries were not just tools for language learning but also valuable sources for general knowledge acquisition. As we admire this enchanting print, we are transported back to an era when illustrations played a crucial role in educating people about various subjects. This particular engraving captures both artistic beauty and educational value within its composition. Preserved within private collections today, prints like these continue to fascinate viewers with their historical significance while reminding us of our continuous quest for knowledge across different disciplines.
