Charter Companys Corporation Depicting Granting Viii Barber Surgeon


EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Barber-Surgeons Picture: Henry VIII Grants a Charter to the Corporation of London," is a historical masterpiece from the Mary Evans Picture Library. The print, which dates back to the 17th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, depicting a significant moment in the history of the barber-surgeons' company in London. At the center of the composition, King Henry VIII, dressed in his regal attire and seated on his throne, is shown granting a charter to a group of barber-surgeons. The king, with a quill pen in hand, signs the document, while the barber-surgeons, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, look on with anticipation and respect. The scene is set against a backdrop of grandeur, with ornate furnishings, tapestries, and banners adorning the room. The barber-surgeons' company, which was established in London in the late medieval period, was responsible for the practice of surgery and barbering. The two professions were closely intertwined during this time, as surgeons often relied on barbers to prepare their patients for surgery by shaving them. This image, therefore, represents the unity of the two professions and their importance in the medical world of the time. The intricate details in the print, from the textured fabrics to the expressive faces of the figures, make it a visual feast for history enthusiasts and art lovers alike. The print also provides a valuable insight into the social and political climate of the time, offering a glimpse into the world of the Tudor court and the role of the barber-surgeons in London's history.
