EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the likeness of Miguel Servet, a Spanish doctor and theologian known for his groundbreaking theory on the circulation of blood. Despite his significant contributions to science and medicine, Servet was condemned as a heretic and sentenced to death by being burned alive. The statue depicted in this image, created by Dionisio Lasu in the 19th century, stands as a solemn tribute to Servet's enduring legacy. Located at the Faculty of Medicine and Science at the University of Zaragoza, this sculpture serves as a reminder of the persecution faced by those who dared to challenge prevailing beliefs during their time. In this vertical portrait, Servet's gaze is intense and unwavering, reflecting both his intellect and his defiance in the face of adversity. The color palette adds depth and dimension to the figure, emphasizing his importance in history as a courageous thinker ahead of his time. As we reflect on Miguel Servet's life and tragic fate, let us honor his memory by continuing to push boundaries and question established norms in pursuit of knowledge and truth. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who dare to challenge conventional wisdom.
