EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the miraculous curing of a hemiplegic in the 15th century. The illustration, taken from Le livre des faiz monseigneur Saint Louis and currently housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, transports us back to an era where faith and healing were intertwined. In this vibrant image, we witness a disabled woman being cured of her paralysis by a ray of light. With her crutch lying abandoned on the ground, she stands tall and strong, symbolizing hope for those facing physical challenges. The medieval setting adds an air of mystique to the scene, reminding us of the power attributed to miracles during that time. The artwork not only captures a momentous event but also reflects societal attitudes towards disability in France during this period. It sheds light on how people with disabilities were viewed as individuals deserving compassion and healing. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from the fifteenth century, we are reminded that health knows no boundaries of time or place. This art media serves as a testament to our enduring quest for wellness throughout history.
