EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the likeness of Abbe Charles Michel de l'Epee, a French philanthropist and inventor who made significant contributions to the education and communication of the deaf-and-dumb community during the 18th century. Born in 1712, Abbe de l'Epee dedicated his life to developing an alphabet system that allowed individuals with hearing impairments to effectively communicate through sign language.
His pioneering work in creating a standardized sign language alphabet revolutionized the way deaf individuals were able to express themselves and engage with society.
