EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Perruque (a marteau); Peruke; Perruke" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the fascinating world of European fashion. The engraving, created by an unknown artist from the European School, showcases three different styles of wigs - perruques - that were popular during this era. The detailed illustration was originally featured in Armand Le Brun's renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels" which aimed to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of everyday words in French, English, and German. Published around 1873 by Furne, Jouvet & Cie. , this illustrated dictionary became an invaluable resource for those seeking knowledge across various languages. The image itself is beautifully composed and exudes a sense of elegance and sophistication. It transports us to a time when wigs were not only fashionable but also symbolized social status and refinement. Each wig style depicted - perruque à marteau, peruke, and perruke - represents different variations that were worn by individuals in Germany and England during this period. As we admire this exquisite piece of artistry captured through engraving techniques, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within our cultural heritage. This print serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and a window into the past for those interested in exploring historical fashion trends.
