EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Sanglier; Wild-boar; Wildschwein" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, is a remarkable illustration for "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. The image depicts a majestic wild boar, known as "Sanglier" in French and "Wildschwein" in German. This beautifully detailed engraving was created to enhance understanding and knowledge of everyday words in three languages - French, English, and German. It was published around 1873 by Furne and Jouvet. The artwork transports us back to the late 19th century when dictionaries were not only functional but also works of art. This illustrated dictionary served as an invaluable resource for language learners during that time. The wild boar itself exudes power and strength through its lifelike depiction. Its presence evokes images of untamed wilderness and reminds us of the diverse wildlife found across Europe. The engraver's skillful technique brings out every intricate detail of this magnificent creature. This print offers a glimpse into history while celebrating both nature's beauty and human intellect. It serves as a reminder that knowledge knows no boundaries or borders - it unites people from different countries under one common pursuit: learning.
