EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Bernard Picart, titled "Telephus Cured by the Rust of the Same Spear Which Wounded him" transports us to a scene from Greek mythology. The print depicts Telephus, a heroic figure from the Trojan War, lying on a bed or couch in his moment of sickness and despair. Nude and vulnerable, Telephus is shown with his wounded body prominently displayed. His injuries were inflicted by Achilles himself, but an unexpected cure lies within the very weapon that caused them. A doctor can be seen diligently scraping rust off the spearhead onto a tray, preparing it for use as medicine. The classical setting adds an air of timelessness to this poignant image. The room is adorned with elegant furniture and furnishings that create an atmosphere of refinement and sophistication. Picart's masterful technique brings depth to each stroke of sepia ink used in this engraving. The artist skillfully captures every nuance of Telephus' pain and suffering while also conveying hope through the healing process unfolding before our eyes. As we contemplate this artwork from centuries past, we are reminded not only of the power of ancient myths but also how humanity has sought remedies for its ailments since time immemorial. This print serves as a testament to both our enduring fascination with classical tales and our relentless pursuit of medical knowledge throughout history.
