EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Gourmette; Curb; Kinnkette" takes us back to the 19th century, where knowledge was sought after through dictionaries and textbooks. Created by the European School, this illustration is part of a private collection that showcases ordinary words from French, English, and German languages. The intricate detail in this print highlights three specific terms - gourmette, curb, and kinnkette - all related to jewelry or accessories. The image serves as an educational tool for those eager to expand their vocabulary during that time period. Published in Armand Le Brun's "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" around 1873, this engraving provides a glimpse into the linguistic world of Europe at the time. It represents not only France but also Germany and England with its inclusion of multiple languages. As we delve into history through art like this one, it becomes evident how language has always been a bridge connecting cultures across borders. This piece reminds us of the importance placed on general knowledge during the late 19th century when dictionaries were cherished possessions for many individuals seeking intellectual growth. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we can appreciate this remarkable print from our past while acknowledging its significance in documenting linguistic diversity within Europe.
