EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Stomach Ache, illustration from The Works of Hippocrates" takes us back to the ancient world of Greek medicine. Created in 1934 by Joseph Kuhn-Regnier, this vibrant colour lithograph showcases a scene that portrays the complexities of human health and treatment. In this image, we witness a sickbed where a female patient lies with an apparent stomach ache. Surrounded by medical practitioners and physicians, she seeks relief from her discomfort. The artist skillfully captures the essence of antiquity through intricate details such as the furniture and furnishings adorning the room. The illustration also highlights various elements related to illness and its cure. From swollen bellies caused by flatulence to intimate moments between lovers after coitus, it offers a glimpse into different aspects of medical scenes during that era. With nudity being common in ancient Greek culture for both men and women, this artwork fearlessly embraces nakedness as part of its narrative. It serves as a reminder that even in vulnerability, healing can be found under the care of knowledgeable doctors. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection today, we are transported back to an era where Hippocrates' teachings on medicine were highly regarded. This print not only celebrates artistry but also invites contemplation on our shared human experience with sickness and healing throughout history.
