This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the fascinating history of medicine. The image showcases a ligature of the right finger, an essential surgical instrument used by skilled surgeons during that era. This particular instrument was meticulously crafted in 1891 by Frederick Treves, a renowned surgeon known for his contributions to medical advancements. The ligature itself is beautifully displayed, highlighting its intricate design and precision. Its purpose was to securely tie off blood vessels or other structures during surgery, aiding in controlling bleeding and facilitating successful procedures. This photograph serves as a testament to the evolution of medical equipment over time and reminds us of how far we have come in healthcare practices. As we admire this historical artifact, it sparks curiosity about the challenges faced by surgeons in the past and their relentless pursuit of innovation.

This print not only captures an important moment in medical history but also invites contemplation about human ingenuity and perseverance within the field of healthcare. It stands as a tribute to all those who dedicated their lives to advancing surgical instruments like this ligature - invaluable tools that continue to save lives today.
