EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Solitaire (Dronte); Dodo; Einsiedlergans" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an engraving by the European School. This remarkable piece belongs to a private collection and is part of the renowned "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. Intriguingly depicted in black and white, this illustration offers a glimpse into the world of ordinary words through its vocabulary-rich content. The engraving beautifully captures three fascinating creatures - the Solitaire (Dronte), Dodo, and Einsiedlergans - each with their own unique characteristics. This artwork not only serves as an educational tool but also highlights the importance of knowledge acquisition during that era. It symbolizes a time when dictionaries and textbooks were highly valued for expanding one's understanding of language and culture. Originating from Germany in the late 19th century, this piece represents a significant contribution to general knowledge across Europe. Its inclusion of French, English, German languages reflects its purpose as an illustrated dictionary catering to multiple linguistic communities.
