EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Tarentule; Tarantula; Tarantel" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was created as an illustration for Armand Le Brun et al's renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" published by Furne and Jouvet around 1873. The intricate engraving depicts a tarentula or tarantula spider in stunning detail. Its delicate lines and meticulous shading bring this arachnid to life on paper. This piece not only serves as a visual treat but also offers valuable knowledge about these fascinating creatures. The print transports us back to the late 19th century when Europe was undergoing significant cultural and scientific advancements. It reminds us of the importance placed on expanding general knowledge during that era through dictionaries and illustrated textbooks like this one. While originating from Germany, this engraving found its way into collections across various European countries including England and France. It symbolizes how art transcends borders and unites people with shared interests in wildlife, education, and exploration. As we admire this remarkable artwork today, it sparks our curiosity about nature's wonders while serving as a testament to human creativity throughout history.
