EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Caisse; Chest; Kiste" takes us back to the 19th century when knowledge was sought after through printed materials. The artwork, created by an anonymous European School artist, showcases a chest or caisse in intricate detail. Part of the renowned collection "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" this illustration served as a visual aid for French, English, and German learners. It was featured in Armand Le Brun et al's comprehensive dictionary published by Furne Jouvet around 1873. The image transports us to a time when dictionaries were not only sources of language but also gateways to general knowledge. This particular print captures the essence of everyday words with its depiction of a chest - an object that held treasures and secrets within its sturdy frame. As we admire this vintage artwork, we are reminded of the importance placed on education during the 19th century across Europe. From Germany to England and France, people sought enlightenment through textbooks like these illustrated dictionaries. Brought to life by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, this engraving offers us a glimpse into history while showcasing the beauty and significance of language learning in our past.
