EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Forcat; Convict; Galeerensclave" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and was created for the renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. The image depicts three distinct figures - a forcat (forced laborer), a convict, and a galeerensclave (galley slave). Each character represents different aspects of societal punishment during that era. This illustration offers viewers an insight into the historical context surrounding these terms. Published around 1873, this illustrated dictionary aimed to provide knowledge and understanding of common words in French, English, and German. It served as an invaluable resource for students and scholars alike. The intricate details captured in this engraving highlight the skillful craftsmanship of its creator. The composition transports us back to a time when dictionaries were not only sources of information but also works of art. With references to Germany, England, France, and other European countries within its pages, this comprehensive volume reflects Europe's diverse linguistic landscape during the late 19th century. Its significance extends beyond language learning as it sheds light on cultural exchanges between nations. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate both the beauty and educational value embedded within historical engravings like this one.
