EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Paresseux; Sloth; Faulthier" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was created as an illustration for Armand Le Brun et al's renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" published around 1873. The intricate engraving depicts a paresseux (French for sloth) in all its glory. With meticulous attention to detail and skillful craftsmanship, the artist captures the essence of this lazy creature known for its idleness and laziness. The image serves as a visual representation of one of the seven deadly sins - sloth. This historical piece not only reflects on human nature but also provides valuable insights into language and culture during that era. It is a testament to the importance placed on knowledge and general understanding through dictionaries and illustrated texts. The print itself is brought to life with exceptional clarity by Bridgeman Images' expertise in preserving fine art masterpieces. As we admire this enchanting work from centuries past, it reminds us of our connection to history and how art continues to inspire us today.
