EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Rhinoceros" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of knowledge and exploration. The engraving, created by an unknown European School artist, showcases a magnificent rhinoceros in intricate detail. Part of the renowned "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" this illustration was featured in a comprehensive dictionary that aimed to bridge linguistic gaps between French, English, and German speakers. Published around 1873 by Armand Le Brun et al. , this book sought to expand ordinary vocabulary through stunning visual representations. The image transports us to a time when dictionaries were not just tools for language learning but also works of art. It reflects the meticulous craftsmanship prevalent during the 19th century with its fine lines and attention to anatomical accuracy. As we admire this engraving, we are reminded of how knowledge transcends borders and connects people across nations. From Germany to England, France to Europe as a whole, this artwork symbolizes the unity found within shared understanding. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem from their private collection, allowing us access to an era where illustrated dictionaries served as windows into different cultures. This print serves as both a testament to human curiosity and an invitation for viewers today to explore new horizons through words and images alike.
