EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of "The Wards at Saint John's Hospital" painted by Johannes Beerblock in 1778. The oil on canvas masterpiece, located at the Groeningemuseum in Bruges, Belgium, offers a glimpse into the world of food and care during that era. In this particular scene, we witness a female worker diligently attending to her duties. With containers neatly arranged around her, she focuses on her task with utmost dedication. A curious cat stands nearby, observing every move she makes. This charming feline companion adds an element of warmth and companionship to the otherwise busy environment. The painting beautifully captures the essence of medical care in the 18th century. From its depiction of workers engaged in their respective trades to showcasing domestic animals like cats as part of daily life within these hospital walls, it provides a unique insight into historical practices. As we admire this artwork through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to experience both the laborious nature and compassionate spirit that characterized healthcare during those years. It serves as a reminder that caring for others has always been an essential aspect of our humanity – whether it be tending to patients or nurturing animals who provide comfort and joy within these healing spaces.
