EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Corvee; Fatigue-duty; Frohndienst" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of military duty and laborious chores. Created by an unknown European School artist, this print is part of a private collection. The illustration was originally featured in Armand Le Brun's book, "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" which aimed to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of everyday words in French, English, and German. Published around 1873 by Furne Jouvet, this dictionary became a valuable resource for those seeking knowledge across different languages. In this particular image, we see soldiers dressed in military uniforms engaged in corvee or fatigue-duty tasks. The meticulous detailing captures the essence of their work as they diligently perform various chores. This depiction offers insight into the daily lives of troops during that era. With its historical significance and educational value, this engraving serves as a window into the past for both scholars and art enthusiasts alike. It showcases not only the artistic talent prevalent during the 19th century but also sheds light on societal norms surrounding labor within military contexts.
