EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Debarcadere; Landing-place; Ausladungsplatz" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a scene of bustling activity at a landing place. The print, created by an anonymous European School artist, is part of a private collection. The illustration was originally featured in the book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" published around 1873. It aimed to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of everyday words in French, English, and German languages. In this particular image, we are transported to a port where various means of conveyance can be seen. A boat dominates the foreground while smaller vessels navigate nearby waters. A tugboat stands ready for its next task as passengers eagerly await their departure or arrival on the pier. This artwork not only captures the essence of transportation during that era but also symbolizes knowledge and exploration through language acquisition. Its inclusion in this educational dictionary underscores its importance as an essential tool for those seeking to broaden their linguistic horizons. As we admire this historical piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it serves as a reminder of how our ancestors navigated both physical journeys and intellectual pursuits in their quest for understanding and connection across borders.
