EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Pintade; Guinea-fowl; Perlhuhn" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and was featured in the renowned publication, Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands. The engraving beautifully depicts three distinct species of birds: pintade (guinea-fowl) and perlhuhn (a type of guinea-fowl native to Germany). The intricate details captured in this illustration highlight the skillful craftsmanship of the engraver. Published around 1873, this illustrated dictionary aimed to enhance general knowledge by providing visual representations alongside French, English, and German words. It served as a valuable resource for individuals seeking to expand their vocabulary across different languages. The print not only offers insight into wildlife but also serves as a testament to the importance of books as educational tools during that era. Its presence in a private collection speaks volumes about its historical significance and artistic value. With references to various countries such as France, England, Germany, and even Europe as a whole through its mention of European Union (EU), this artwork transcends borders and celebrates cultural diversity. It reminds us how art can bridge gaps between nations while showcasing our shared fascination with nature's wonders. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from the 19th century for all enthusiasts who appreciate both fine art and intellectual exploration.
