EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Trombe (d eau); Water-spout; Wasserhose" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an engraving by the European School. Housed in a private collection, this artwork is a remarkable illustration for Armand Le Brun et al's book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands". The image depicts a water-spout or trombe d'eau as it is known in French and German. This natural phenomenon is beautifully captured in black and white by an anonymous engraver. The attention to detail allows viewers to appreciate the power and grandeur of this awe-inspiring occurrence. As we delve into history through this print, we are reminded of the importance of knowledge and language. The illustrated dictionary serves as a valuable resource for those seeking to expand their understanding of everyday words across French, English, and German languages. With its origins rooted in Germany but widely used throughout Europe including England and France during that era, this piece represents not only linguistic diversity but also cultural exchange within the European Union. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we have access to extraordinary pieces like these that offer glimpses into different periods of human history. Let us cherish such works that bridge gaps between past eras and present generations while celebrating art's ability to educate and inspire.
