EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of medical history, titled "Ms Sup Turc 693 fol. 20 Cauterisation of a Migraine, 1466". Created on vellum by the talented Charaf-ed-Din in 1466, this artwork is now housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The image depicts an intricate scene from a Persian treatise on surgery called "La Chirurgie Imperiale" composed around 1300. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he illustrates the cauterization procedure being performed on a patient suffering from a migraine. This historical document sheds light on the advancements and techniques used in Arabic medicine during that era. Charaf-ed-Din's expertise as both an illustrator and surgeon shines through his work. His illustrations not only serve as visual aids but also provide valuable insights into medical practices of the time. The manuscript itself holds immense significance as it offers glimpses into Turkish, Persian, and Islamic medical traditions. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported back to Ottoman Turkey in the year 1466. We witness an Iranian doctor skillfully attending to his patient using traditional methods rooted in centuries-old knowledge and wisdom. This photograph serves as a testament to humanity's continuous pursuit of understanding and healing throughout history. It reminds us of our shared heritage and provides us with profound appreciation for those who came before us in advancing medical science.
