EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Animals sick with plague: monkey carries out vaccinations" takes us back to the late 19th century, showcasing a fable by Jean de La Fontaine. The drawing, skillfully created by Christophe, depicts an extraordinary scene where a monkey is seen administering vaccinations to animals afflicted with the plague. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of this ancient tale, blending elements of French literature and folklore. It serves as a reminder of the power of storytelling in conveying important messages about society and human nature. Intriguingly, this image also highlights the concept of vaccination during a time when medical advancements were still in their infancy. The monkey's role as both doctor and caregiver symbolizes our innate desire for health and well-being amidst times of illness and disease. As we delve into this thought-provoking piece, we are transported to an era marked by epidemics and pandemics that plagued communities worldwide. Through its intricate details and delicate engravings, it reminds us of the fragility of life but also instills hope for healing through medicine. Stefano Bianchetti's expertise in capturing historical moments shines through in this remarkable photograph. Its presence in private collections ensures that future generations can appreciate not only its artistic value but also reflect on how far we have come in combating illnesses that once ravaged our world.
