EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Vrille; Gimlet; Nagelbohrer" by the European School in the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and depicts three tools - vrille, gimlet, and nagelbohrer - beautifully illustrated for the book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. The intricate details of this engraving highlight the craftsmanship of the artist. It was created as an educational resource to aid readers in understanding everyday words in French, English, and German. Published around 1873 by Furne Jouvet & Cie. , this illustrated dictionary aimed to expand general knowledge across Europe. The historical significance of this piece lies not only in its linguistic purpose but also its representation of cultural exchange during that era. With references to Germany and England within the artwork's context, it reflects how different nations contributed to language development and shared knowledge throughout Europe. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's Bridgeman Images collection, we are reminded of how books have long been valuable sources of information. This particular engraving serves as a testament to human curiosity and our continuous quest for knowledge across borders.
