Le Vocabulaire Illustre - Thermometre; Thermometer (engraving) - A Window into 19th Century Knowledge
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases an exquisite engraving from the 19th century book, "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands". The artwork depicts a detailed illustration of a thermometer, providing valuable insight into the world of knowledge during that era. Created by the European School in the late 19th century, this engraving offers a glimpse into how thermometers were perceived and understood at that time. It was part of an illustrated dictionary aimed at facilitating language learning for French, English, and German speakers. This particular edition was published around 1873 by Armand Le Brun et al. The image portrays not only the thermometer itself but also various measurements and scales associated with temperature. Its inclusion in this comprehensive dictionary reflects society's growing interest in standardized weights and measures during the period. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry today, it serves as a reminder of how far our understanding has evolved since then. From its origins in Germany to its influence across Europe through the European Union (EU), this engraved masterpiece symbolizes both scientific progress and cultural exchange. Let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also acknowledge how dictionaries like these played a crucial role in expanding general knowledge across nations. Through their beautifully crafted illustrations and informative content, they continue to inspire curiosity even centuries later. Photo credit: Bridgeman Images via Fine Art Finder
