EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Vocabulaire Illustre: Gorgerin; Gorget; Halsschild" is a remarkable piece of artwork from the 19th century. Created by an unknown European School artist, this print showcases the intricate details and craftsmanship that was prevalent during this era. The illustration is part of the renowned book "Le Vocabulaire Illustre des Mots Usuels, Francais, Anglais, Allemands" by Armand Le Brun et al. Published in c. 1873 by Furne, Jouvet, this dictionary aimed to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of ordinary words in French, English, and German languages. The image itself depicts a gorgerin or gorget - a type of neck armor worn during medieval times for protection. The attention to detail in capturing every curve and embellishment on the gorgerin is truly impressive. This engraving serves as both an educational tool for language learners and an artistic representation of historical artifacts. With its origins rooted in Germany but now housed within a private collection, this engraving represents the rich cultural heritage found throughout Europe. It symbolizes not only knowledge but also the interconnectedness between different countries and their shared history.
