EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Patineuse; Lady-skater; Schlittschuhlauferin" transports us back to the 19th century, a time when ice skating was not only a popular pastime but also an art form. The engraving, created by the European School, beautifully captures the grace and elegance of a lady skater gliding effortlessly on ice. Part of the renowned collection "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" this illustration showcases the intersection of language and culture. It serves as a visual aid for understanding everyday words in French, English, and German. Published in 1873 by Armand Le Brun et al. , this illustrated dictionary aimed to broaden knowledge and facilitate communication across borders. The image itself portrays a woman dressed in period attire gracefully maneuvering on her skates. Her poise and confidence are evident as she effortlessly glides across the frozen surface. This depiction not only highlights the beauty of ice skating but also reflects societal norms surrounding femininity during that era. As we admire this enchanting engraving from our private collection, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and capture moments that resonate with viewers even centuries later. It is through such prints that we gain insight into historical periods while appreciating their artistic value.
