EDITORS COMMENTS
This 14th-century miniature print, titled "Medicine: sick person heals at home" offers a glimpse into the world of healthcare during the Middle Ages. The unknown artist skillfully depicts a scene of care and healing within the confines of a home. The intricate details in this artwork showcase the various elements involved in treating an illness during that time period. A bed, adorned with rich furnishings, takes center stage, serving as both a place of rest and recovery for the sick individual. A doctor can be seen attentively examining his patient, offering medical consultation and guidance. The manuscript page featured in this print is part of Galen's Treatise (Trattato di Galeno), translated by Nicola da Reggio, a renowned philologist doctor from Cesena in Italy. This manuscript was housed in Biblioteca Malatestiana e Raccolte Comunali. Through this image, we are transported back to an era where medicine relied heavily on personal care and attention within one's own household. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of medical advancements and practices. Luisa Ricciarini has beautifully captured this historical moment through her lens, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistry but also gain insight into healthcare practices from centuries ago.
