EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate engraving of "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Coq (de clocher); Weathercock; Kirchahn" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was originally created as an illustration for "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. The image features a detailed depiction of a weather vane or coq de clocher atop a church steeple. This beautifully crafted engraving captures both the elegance and functionality of these iconic structures that adorn rooftops across Europe. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage shared by countries such as Germany, England, and France during this period. The print not only highlights the artistic skill involved in creating such engravings but also emphasizes their educational value. As part of an illustrated dictionary aimed at teaching ordinary words in French, English, and German languages to readers in the late 19th century, it represents an important tool for expanding one's vocabulary. With its historical significance and attention to detail, this print offers viewers a glimpse into early 19th-century Europe while celebrating language learning through visual artistry. Whether displayed in homes or educational institutions today, it continues to inspire curiosity about our linguistic roots and appreciation for traditional craftsmanship.
