Le Vocabulaire Illustre - Rosse; Jade; Schindmahre (engraving) - A Glimpse into 19th Century European Knowledge
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Rosse; Jade; Schindmahre" offers a fascinating glimpse into the intellectual landscape of 19th century Europe. Created by an anonymous European School artist in the late 1800s, this print is part of a private collection and showcases three ordinary words from French, English, and German languages. Originally featured in Armand Le Brun's comprehensive work "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" published around 1873 by Furne, Jouvet & Cie. , this illustration aimed to provide readers with a visual representation of everyday vocabulary. The meticulous detail and precision captured in this piece reflect the dedication to knowledge that characterized the era. The image features three distinct objects associated with each word: "Rosse" (horse), "Jade" (a precious stone), and "Schindmahre" (a type of horse). Through this artwork, viewers are transported back to a time when dictionaries were cherished sources of information for individuals seeking to expand their understanding of language. As we admire this remarkable engraving today, we can appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its historical significance. It serves as a reminder of how our ancestors sought knowledge through illustrated dictionaries like these – valuable tools that continue to shape our understanding even centuries later.
