EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Diseases of the Skin: Gangrene and Vaccinide" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the fascinating world of medical history. Created by an English School artist, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection. The image showcases two skin diseases - gangrene and vaccinide - which were prevalent during that era. It serves as an illustration for H Radcliffe Cricker's Atlas of the Diseases of the Skin, published in approximately 1890. The detailed depiction allows viewers to understand these conditions better and appreciate how far medical knowledge has progressed since then. Gangrene, characterized by tissue death due to insufficient blood supply or infection, is portrayed alongside vaccinide, also known as dermatitis gangraenosa infantum or erythema papulatum. These diseases highlight the importance of early diagnosis and treatment in preventing severe complications. As we examine this historical artwork, it reminds us not only of our progress in medicine but also emphasizes the significance of vaccinations in preventing such ailments. This thought-provoking piece invites contemplation on both past and present approaches to healthcare. Through this photograph print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are transported into a realm where art intertwines with science to shed light on humanity's ongoing battle against disease.
