EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Cadavre; Corpse; Leiche" takes us back to the 19th century. Created by an unknown European School artist, this print is part of a private collection. The artwork was originally featured in Armand Le Brun et al's book, "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" published around 1873. It beautifully illustrates the words for "cadavre" (French), "corpse" (English), and "Leiche" (German). The detailed engraving showcases a scene that evokes both curiosity and contemplation. Its intricate lines bring life to the subject matter - or rather death - as it depicts a corpse lying peacefully on its final resting place. As we delve into the historical context of this piece, we are transported to Germany during the late 19th century. The image serves as a reminder of how language connects cultures across Europe and beyond. With its inclusion in an illustrated dictionary, this print not only educates but also sparks our imagination. It highlights the importance of knowledge and understanding through visual representation. Whether you appreciate art or have an interest in linguistics and history, this intriguing engraving offers a glimpse into past times while inviting us to explore different languages within one frame.
