EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, entitled 'A Gentleman Dispensing His Medicine Cabinet to Beggars at Ivry-sur-Seine, 18th Century,' depicts an English gentleman in a village setting, surrounded by infirm beggars. The gentleman, dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, reaches into his medicine cabinet, offering various remedies to the needy. He tenderly hands aerated salts to a one-armed soldier, a Bruchsal elixir to an old woman, and magnetic drops, Glauber salts, and dry biscuits to others. The scene unfolds in a rustic setting, with a village tent in the background and a tree providing shade. The atmosphere is filled with the simple pleasures of rural life, as evidenced by the music and dancing taking place nearby. The gentlemen's act of kindness adds to the overall sense of happiness and romance in the air. This image is taken from Thomas Rowlandson's 'Journal of Sentimental Travels in the Southern Provinces of France,' translated and abridged from Moritz August von Thummel's 'Reise in die mittglichen Provinzen van Frankreich im Jahre 1785-1786.' The illustration, published by Rudolph Ackermann in London in 1821, is a testament to the compassion and generosity of the gentleman traveler, who brought joy and relief to the infirm beggars of Ivry-sur-Seine.
