EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of a book called "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" published in 1850. The engraving, created by Louis Simon Lassalle (also known as Cabaillot-Lassalle), measures 18x12 cm and is part of a private collection. The title page features intricate details and elegant typography, setting the tone for the educational journey that awaits within its pages. This particular edition was illustrated with 16 lithographs drawn by L. Lassalle, along with numerous vignettes on wood. It was published by Mrs Veuve Louis Janet, Libraire-publisher, located at 59 rue Saint-Jacques in Paris. The book itself spans across 142 pages and serves as an alphabet primer or abecedary for young learners. Its purpose is to educate children about various animals found in the natural world through engaging illustrations and informative text. In this specific engraving captured by Duvallon's lens, we see a beautifully rendered image of a parrot perched on a branch. The attention to detail brings out the bird's vibrant colors and distinctive features while showcasing Lassalle's skill as an engraver. This print not only captures a piece of history from the early nineteenth century but also highlights the importance of education and natural sciences during that time period. It serves as a reminder of how art can be used to inspire learning and curiosity among young minds.
