EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Escargot; Snail; Schnecke" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, part of a private collection, is a visual representation of the snail vocabulary from Armand Le Brun et al's renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands". The intricate engraving depicts various types of snails and serves as an illustration for this comprehensive dictionary that encompasses French, English, and German words. Published around 1873 by Furne Jouvet, this educational masterpiece aimed to provide readers with a deeper understanding of everyday language. The image transports us back to the late 19th century when knowledge was sought after through beautifully illustrated dictionaries like this one. It reminds us of the importance placed on expanding general knowledge during that era. With its delicate details and meticulous craftsmanship, this engraving captures not only the essence of different snail species but also reflects the rich wildlife found in France. The inclusion of Germany on Europe's map further emphasizes its relevance across borders within Europe. As we admire this historical artwork preserved by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of how art can serve as both an educational tool and a testament to our fascination with nature's wonders.
