EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in medical history - the disarticulation of the great toe. Captured in 1891 by Frederick Treves, a renowned surgeon of the 19th century, this image showcases an array of medical equipment and surgical instruments used during this groundbreaking procedure. The disarticulation of the great toe was a remarkable advancement in healthcare at that time. It involved removing the entire joint connecting the metatarsal bone and phalanx, often necessary due to severe injuries or diseases affecting this crucial part of our foot anatomy. This procedure required skilled surgeons like Treves, who meticulously utilized various tools displayed in this photograph. Examining these historical medical instruments evokes awe and curiosity about how far we have come in modern medicine. The intricate designs and craftsmanship exhibited here remind us of the dedication and precision required for successful surgeries during that era. As we delve into the rich history of medicine through images like these, it is essential to appreciate not only technological advancements but also acknowledge those pioneering individuals who paved the way for today's healthcare practices. This print serves as a testament to their expertise and reminds us that progress is built upon past achievements
