EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Coing; Quince; Quitte" is a true treasure from the 19th century. Created by an anonymous European School artist, this print showcases the beauty of ordinary words through intricate illustrations. Part of the renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" edited by Armand Le Brun et al in 1873, this engraving exemplifies the rich knowledge and linguistic diversity present during that time. The image features three fruits - coing (quince), quince (quitte), and quitte (a variety of pear) - elegantly depicted with meticulous detail. The artist's skillful use of lines brings these fruits to life on paper. As we delve into this piece further, it becomes evident that it represents more than just a dictionary entry. It symbolizes the importance of language as a bridge between cultures and nations. With references to Germany, England, France, and other European countries within its description, this artwork serves as a visual representation of unity amidst diversity. Whether used for educational purposes or simply admired for its aesthetic value alone, this enchanting engraving captures both history and artistry in one frame. Its presence in any collection would undoubtedly spark curiosity about our shared linguistic heritage while reminding us of the power held within everyday words.
