Le Vocabulaire Illustre - Personnage; Personage; Person (engraving) - A Glimpse into 19th Century European Knowledge
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Personnage; Personage; Person" offers a fascinating window into the intellectual landscape of 19th century Europe. Created by an anonymous European School artist in the late 1800s, this print is part of a private collection. The artwork was originally featured in Armand Le Brun et al's renowned illustrated dictionary, "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands". Published around 1873 by Furne Jouvet & Cie. , this comprehensive dictionary aimed to bridge linguistic gaps between French, English, and German speakers. With its intricate details and meticulous craftsmanship typical of engravings from that era, this piece showcases a single person depicted against a backdrop that hints at Germany's northern region. The figure stands as an embodiment of knowledge itself within the context of the book. As we delve into the historical significance of this print, it becomes evident how it reflects not only Europe's thirst for general knowledge during that time but also its desire to foster cross-cultural understanding. This engraving serves as a testament to the importance placed on language education and communication across borders. Today, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and rich historical value. It reminds us of our shared human quest for knowledge while offering glimpses into past societies' pursuit of enlightenment through dictionaries and illustrated texts like these.
