EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Commis (de magasin); Shopman; Handlungsdiener" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of trade and employment. Created by an anonymous European School artist, this print is part of a private collection. The illustration was originally featured in Armand Le Brun's "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" a comprehensive dictionary that encompassed French, English, and German words. Published around 1873 by Furne, Jouvet & Cie. , this book aimed to provide general knowledge on various professions and their corresponding terms. In this particular image, we see a shopman or commis de magasin attending to his duties in a bustling store. The meticulous details captured in the engraving transport us to an era when business enterprises thrived through free trade and goods transport. As we observe this piece closely, it becomes evident that it not only serves as an educational tool but also offers insight into social dynamics during the late nineteenth century. From Germany to England, these shopmen played crucial roles within their communities while contributing to the growth of local economies. With its historical significance and artistic charm, this print invites us to appreciate both the beauty of fine art and its ability to preserve moments from our past.
