EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Plongeur; Diver; Taucher" takes us back to the 19th century, where knowledge was sought after through books and dictionaries. Created by the European School, this illustration is part of a private collection. The artwork originates from a renowned publication called "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. Published around 1873 by Furne Jouvet, this book aimed to provide readers with an illustrated dictionary of ordinary words in French, English, and German. In this particular print, we see a scuba diver exploring the depths of the ocean. The intricate details in the engraving showcase the dedication and skill of the artist. It serves as a reminder that even in earlier times when technology was limited compared to today's standards, people still had a thirst for knowledge about various subjects. The inclusion of multiple languages reflects Europe's diverse linguistic landscape during that era. This engraving not only captures an important moment in history but also highlights how language learning has always been valued across different cultures. With its historical significance and artistic beauty, this print offers viewers a glimpse into both past educational practices and our enduring fascination with exploration and discovery.
