EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Semoir; Drill-plough; Drillpflug" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was created for Armand Le Brun et al's renowned publication "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands". Published around 1873 by Furne and Jouvet, this illustrated dictionary aimed to provide comprehensive knowledge of everyday words in French, English, and German. The engraving itself depicts a scene from agriculture with the focus on a semoir (drill-plough) or drillpflug. This tool played a crucial role in farming practices during that era. The image transports us back to the late 19th century when agricultural techniques were rapidly evolving across Europe. Notably featured are Germany and England as key players in this agricultural revolution. The illustration highlights their respective contributions to farming methods and technology. It also subtly alludes to the broader context of European unity within which these advancements took place. With its intricate details and historical significance, this print serves as both an educational resource and a visual delight. It offers viewers a glimpse into past societies' reliance on agriculture while showcasing how knowledge was disseminated through beautifully illustrated dictionaries like "Le Vocabulaire Illustre". Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this piece of art history for our appreciation today.
