EDITORS COMMENTS
Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Stenographie; Short-hand (engraving) captures the essence of 19th-century European education and language learning. This print, part of a private collection, showcases an engraving from the renowned book 'Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands' by Armand Le Brun et al. The intricate illustration depicts the art of stenography or shorthand in stunning detail. It serves as a visual representation of this essential skill that was widely used during the era for efficient note-taking and transcription. The black-and-white engraving beautifully captures every stroke and curve of the shorthand symbols, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship of the engraver. This print not only reflects on linguistic knowledge but also provides insight into educational practices prevalent at that time. It reminds us of how dictionaries and illustrated textbooks were invaluable resources for individuals seeking to expand their understanding across different languages. With its origins in Germany but encompassing French and English terminology as well, this piece symbolizes unity within Europe through shared linguistic exploration. Furthermore, it offers a glimpse into historical connections between countries such as England and France – both significant players in shaping modern Europe.
