EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a haunting scene from the past, depicting a sickbed with a pox victim. The illustration is taken from a medical treatise by Paracelsus, an influential physician and alchemist of the 16th century. Published in 1553, this woodcut image showcases the grim reality faced by patients during times of plague and epidemic. The attention to detail in this Flemish School artwork is remarkable. It portrays a smallpox patient lying on their bed, surrounded by medical tools and remedies used for treatment. The doctor, dressed in traditional attire, can be seen diligently attending to the suffering individual. This frontispiece offers us an insight into the scientific writing of that era as well as the dutch text accompanying it. Through this historical lens, we are reminded of the devastating impact diseases had on society throughout history. The epidemics that plagued our ancestors were met with limited knowledge and resources compared to modern medicine. This print serves as both a reminder of our progress in healthcare and an homage to those who dedicated their lives to understanding and combating illnesses. It stands as a testament to human resilience in times of sickness while also highlighting how far we have come in terms of medical advancements. As we gaze upon this powerful image captured by Bridgeman Images, let us reflect on the importance of health preservation and appreciate those who tirelessly work towards eradicating diseases worldwide.
