This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Chien du Saint-Bernard; Alpine dog; Alpenhund" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a beautiful illustration of a Saint Bernard dog. The artwork belongs to a private collection and was created by an unknown European School artist. Featured in the renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" this engraving captures the essence of this majestic breed. Known for their strength and loyalty, Saint Bernards were often used as rescue dogs in the Alps. This particular image showcases their gentle nature, with one dog depicted helping another through treacherous snowy terrain. The detailed illustration not only celebrates these incredible animals but also serves as an educational tool, representing knowledge and understanding across different languages.

As we admire this exquisite print from the 19th century, we are reminded of the importance of general knowledge and how it can be beautifully captured in illustrated dictionaries like this one. The intricate details bring history alive while showcasing the beauty of both artistry and language. This enchanting piece transports us to a time when books were cherished treasures filled with valuable information.
