EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking illustration from around 1917 depicts a man sitting tied to a chair, his legs contorted in a wooden straitjacket, evoking the painful attacks of rheumatism and gout. The image serves as an advertisement for the drug Urodonal, promising to cleanse the kidneys, wash the liver and joints, relax the arteries, and prevent obesity. In this black and white drawing by Patrice Cartier, we are transported back to a time when medical treatments were much different than they are today. The man's expression conveys both physical discomfort and perhaps a sense of resignation to his condition. The intricate details in this illustration capture the essence of early 20th-century medicine in France. It is a reminder of how far we have come in terms of understanding and treating conditions like rheumatism and gout. As we look at this image, we can't help but feel grateful for modern advancements in healthcare that have made managing these types of ailments much more bearable. It serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of taking care of our bodies and seeking out effective treatments when needed.
