EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures a significant moment in history - the first two victims of the Plague in Noja, a small town in Puglia, Italy. The image is taken from "Storia d'Italia" a book published in 1864 by an unknown artist. It belongs to a private collection and is now out of copyright. The engraving portrays the grim reality of the disease that ravaged this Italian community during the 19th century. The faces of these unfortunate souls reflect both fear and resignation as they succumb to their illness. The doctor depicted beside them appears helpless, unable to provide effective treatment against this deadly epidemic. The scene serves as a stark reminder of the fragility of human life and the devastating impact that diseases can have on communities. It also highlights the importance of advancements in medicine and public health over time. This historical artifact sheds light on an outbreak that affected not only Noja but also other parts of Apulia region. It symbolizes resilience amidst adversity while serving as a cautionary tale for future generations about the importance of proactive measures to prevent such pandemics. As we gaze upon this powerful image, let us remember those who suffered during this dark period in history and appreciate how far we have come in our understanding and management of infectious diseases today.
