EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Chaperon (de mur); Coping; Mauerkappe" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in a world of knowledge and language. The engraving, created by the European School, is part of a private collection and showcases an illustration from the renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands". The image depicts three different headgear designs known as Chaperon (de mur), Coping, and Mauerkappe. These illustrations were included in Armand Le Brun's collaborative work with Furne Jouvet in 1873. This comprehensive dictionary aimed to provide readers with vocabulary translations between French, English, and German. As we gaze upon this historical artwork from Germany during the late 19th century, we are reminded of its significance in fostering cultural exchange within Europe. The intricate details captured through engravings showcase not only costume design but also serve as a window into general knowledge during that era. This print transports us back to a time when dictionaries were illustrated textbooks that helped individuals expand their linguistic horizons. It serves as a reminder of how valuable these resources were for people seeking to broaden their understanding of ordinary words across different languages. Through this mesmerizing piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can appreciate the beauty and importance of preserving our cultural heritage through art.
