EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Chicot; Stump; Baumstumpf" takes us back to the 19th century when knowledge was sought after through books and dictionaries. Created by the European School, this artwork is part of a private collection. The illustration is an exquisite representation of three ordinary words in French, English, and German - Chicot, Stump, and Baumstumpf respectively.

The intricate details of the engraving showcase the craftsmanship of the artist from Germany. The image transports us to a time where language learning was highly valued across Europe. As we delve into this historical piece, it becomes evident that it symbolizes not only linguistic exploration but also cultural exchange between nations. The inclusion of France, England (Great Britain), and Germany highlights their significant role in shaping European history during that era. This print serves as a reminder of how dictionaries and textbooks were once treasured sources of general knowledge. Through its elegant composition and meticulous execution, it invites viewers to appreciate both artistry and intellectuality intertwined within its lines.
