Sir Alfred Downing Fripp (1865-1930): A Master of the Knife This portrait captures Sir Alfred Downing Fripp, a renowned surgeon at Guy's Hospital in London, in the prime of his career. Appointed as Surgeon in Ordinary to both Prince Wales, later King Edward VII, and his successor, King George V, Fripp's expertise and skill were highly sought after by the royal family and the medical community alike. The year is 1907, and Sir Alfred's sharp intellect and steady hand are evident in this striking image. His piercing gaze and confident demeanor convey a sense of authority and mastery over his craft. The surgeon's white coat, adorned with the insignia of his royal appointments, adds to the regal atmosphere of the photograph. Fripp's contributions to the field of surgery were significant, particularly in the areas of abdominal and thoracic surgery. His innovative techniques and dedication to patient care earned him a reputation as a leading surgeon in London. This portrait, published in Vanity Fair, offers a glimpse into the life of a man who was not only a master of the knife but also a respected figure in British society. Sir Alfred Downing Fripp's legacy continues to inspire and influence the medical community to this day.
