EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Rechaud; Chafing-dish; Kohlenpfanne" 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. The artwork belongs to a comprehensive illustrated dictionary called "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" authored by Armand Le Brun et al. Published in France around 1873 by Furne, Jouvet, it aimed to provide readers with an extensive vocabulary of ordinary words in French, English, and German. In this particular print, we see three different terms related to cooking appliances: rechaud (French), chafing-dish (English), and kohlenpfanne (German). The detailed engraving showcases these items used for heating or keeping food warm during meals. As we delve into the historical context of this piece, we are reminded of the cultural exchange between countries during that era. It represents not only linguistic knowledge but also culinary traditions shared across Europe. This engraving serves as a visual representation of how language connects people from different nations. Preserved over time thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this artwork offers us a glimpse into the past while highlighting the importance of education and communication in our ever-evolving world.
