EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Papillon; Butterfly; Schmetterling" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, is a remarkable illustration for "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. Published around 1873 by Furne and Jouvet, this illustrated dictionary aimed to provide knowledge and understanding of everyday words in French, English, and German. The engraving itself depicts a stunning butterfly known as Nymphalis Urticae or Aglais Urticae. Its intricate details are beautifully captured through the skilled craftsmanship of the anonymous engraver. The delicate wings with their vibrant patterns seem almost lifelike against a backdrop that hints at its natural habitat. This artwork not only serves as an educational tool but also highlights the artistic mastery prevalent during the late 19th century. It represents a time when Europe was undergoing significant cultural exchanges and intellectual growth. Through this print's inclusion in Fine Art Finder's collection from Bridgeman Images, viewers can appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into the world of butterflies while reminding us of our shared linguistic heritage across different countries within Europe – from Germany to England to France.
