EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Pelouse; Grass-plot; Rasenplatz" showcases an exquisite engraving by the European School from the 19th century. The artwork, part of a private collection, beautifully depicts a grassy plot or pelouse in three different languages - French, English, and German. The illustration was originally created for "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" a comprehensive dictionary by Armand Le Brun et al. Published around 1873 by Furne, Jouvet, this illustrated dictionary aimed to provide readers with a rich understanding of everyday words in multiple languages. The image transports us back to the late 19th century when knowledge and scientific methods were expanding rapidly. It reminds us of the importance placed on general knowledge during that era and how dictionaries played a crucial role in imparting information. Amidst the lush greenery depicted in the engraving are towering trees that add depth and beauty to the scene. This inclusion highlights not only botany but also natural history as subjects of study during this period. While Germany is specifically mentioned as being associated with this piece due to its language representation, it serves as a reminder of Europe's shared cultural heritage through references to England and France. These countries have contributed significantly to art, literature, and science throughout history. Overall, this print captures both aesthetic appeal and intellectual curiosity through its depiction of nature combined with linguistic exploration.
