EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th-century woodcut print captures a momentous scene in the history of childbirth. In this image, we see a birthing chair being used as a midwife tends to a laboring mother. The chair is intricately designed, with its tall backrest providing support for the expectant woman. As her assistant stands behind her, offering comfort and reassurance, the midwife skillfully works underneath the layers of clothing. The atmosphere in this illustration is one of intense focus and care. Both women are fully dedicated to ensuring a safe delivery for the mother and child. It's fascinating to observe how healthcare practices have evolved over time, with this historical depiction shedding light on traditional methods employed during labor. The woodcut technique used here adds an artistic touch to the scene, enhancing its authenticity and charm. The headdress worn by both women hints at their professional roles as midwives, further emphasizing their expertise in guiding mothers through childbirth. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Eucharius Roslin's "The Garden of Roses" we are transported back in time to witness an intimate moment shared exclusively among women. This powerful image serves as a testament to the enduring strength and resilience displayed by mothers throughout history while highlighting the crucial role played by skilled midwives in facilitating new life into our world.
