EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Laitue; Lettuce; Lattich" takes us back to the 19th century, where knowledge and exploration were at their peak. Created by the European School, this print is a part of a private collection that showcases the beauty of botany and natural history. The illustration was originally featured in "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" a comprehensive dictionary compiled by Armand Le Brun et al in 1873. This remarkable piece captures the essence of salad-making with its intricate depiction of lettuce varieties such as laitue and lattich. As we delve into this artwork, we are transported to an era when dictionaries were not only sources of information but also works of art. The attention to detail in this engraving highlights the importance placed on understanding ordinary words across different languages - French, English, and German. Through this image, we gain insight into how food played a significant role in bridging cultural gaps during that time. It serves as a reminder that even though centuries have passed since its creation, our fascination with language and nourishment remains timeless. With each stroke meticulously engraved onto paper by skilled hands from generations past, this print stands as a testament to human curiosity and our never-ending quest for knowledge.
