EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back in time to a bustling 17th-century pharmacy, where French School artists captured the essence of healing and exorcism. The oil on canvas masterpiece, titled "The Pharmacists Workshop" offers a fascinating insight into the world of medicine and cure during this era. Within the dimly lit interior, we witness an array of intriguing elements that define this scene. The pharmacist's workshop is adorned with shelves filled with jars and bottles containing mysterious potions, while mortars and pestles stand ready for use. Smoke billows from a furnace as an oven crackles nearby, creating an atmosphere both mystical and practical. Amidst this enchanting setting, we observe a physician attending to a patient who seeks relief from illness or madness. With expertise passed down through generations, these pharmacists were not only skilled in concocting remedies but also believed in purging demons that plagued their patients' bodies and minds. As our eyes wander around the room, we notice lavatories discreetly tucked away behind curtains – symbols of purification amidst chaos. Every corner reveals evidence of dedication to restoring sanity through ancient practices rooted in faith. "The Pharmacists Workshop" invites us to reflect upon the timeless pursuit of curing disease while acknowledging humanity's enduring belief in supernatural forces at play. This extraordinary artwork serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, healers sought solace within their apothecaries -
