EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Peintre (en batiments); House-painter; Anstreicher" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a remarkable engraving by the European School. Housed in a private collection, this artwork was created as an illustration for Armand Le Brun et al's book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" published around 1873. The image depicts a house painter diligently at work, capturing the essence of craftsmanship and skill. Dressed in summer clothes and sporting a hat that shields him from the sun's rays, he is fully immersed in his craft. The attention to detail is evident not only in his work but also in the intricate engravings that bring this scene to life. As we delve into this snapshot of history, we are reminded of the importance of knowledge and general understanding. Craftsmanship and handiwork were highly valued during this era when guilds played a significant role in shaping various industries. While exploring this artwork transports us to Germany with its Germanic influence apparent through clothing styles and cultural elements such as sombreros worn by craftsmen or women present nearby. It is worth noting that England also plays a part here with references to English language usage within Le Brun's book. Overall, this print offers us glimpses into both historical Europe and the world of skilled artisans who shaped their respective crafts during an era marked by innovation and creativity.
