EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Pissenlit; Dandelion; Lowenzahn" showcases the intricate beauty of a dandelion flower. Created by the European School in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection and was featured in Armand Le Brun et al's book, "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels". The illustration perfectly captures the essence of this common flower, known as pissenlit in French, dandelion in English, and lowenzahn in German. The delicate lines and shading bring out every detail of the dandelion's structure. This artwork not only serves as an aesthetic piece but also holds educational value. It represents a time when dictionaries were illustrated to aid readers' understanding of ordinary words across different languages. With its roots deeply embedded in botany and natural history, this engraving exemplifies scientific knowledge from the 19th century. Its inclusion within textbooks reflects its significance as a valuable resource for students seeking to expand their vocabulary. As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are reminded that art has always been intertwined with education. Through illustrations like these, artists have contributed to our collective knowledge while simultaneously creating visually stunning works that stand the test of time.
