EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a map from the renowned publication "On the Mode of Communication of Cholera" by John Snow, dating back to 1855. Measuring at 22.5x14.2 cm, this lithograph is part of a private collection and offers valuable insights into the medical profession during the mid-19th century. The image depicts an outdoor scene, likely set in Britain during that time period. The artist's attention to detail is evident as they skillfully capture various elements such as footprints on the ground, navigational equipment, and people going about their day. However, there is an underlying sense of sickness and unease portrayed through sickly individuals present in the artwork. John Snow was not only an illustrator but also a physician who played a crucial role in understanding cholera outbreaks during his era. This map serves as a visual representation of his groundbreaking research on disease transmission and communication methods. The lithographic technique used for this print adds depth and texture to the artwork while emphasizing its historical significance. It highlights how diseases like cholera were geographically spread and communicated among communities. Overall, this print provides viewers with a glimpse into nineteenth-century healthcare practices while reminding us of the importance of effective communication in combating infectious diseases throughout history.
