EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Soc; Ploughshare; Pflugschar" takes us back to the 19th century when knowledge was sought after through books and dictionaries. The artwork, created by the European School, is part of a private collection and showcases an illustration for "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. The intricate details in this piece highlight three ordinary words - Soc (plow), Ploughshare (the cutting blade of a plow), and Pflugschar (German translation for ploughshare). It serves as a visual aid to help readers understand these terms in French, English, and German languages. The historical significance of this engraving lies not only in its educational value but also in its representation of cultural exchange between countries during that era. With Germany being at the center of Europe's intellectual growth during the 19th century, it is fascinating to see how language played a role in connecting nations. As we admire this print from Fine Art Finder's collection provided by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of the importance placed on general knowledge acquisition during that time period. This artwork stands as a testament to human curiosity and our continuous pursuit of understanding different cultures through language exploration.
