EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a significant moment in medical history - the cows breast used to inoculate the smallpox vaccine by Luigi Sacco in January 1801. The image, taken from an engraving featured in Luigi Sacco's "Vaccination Treat" published in Milan, 1809, offers a glimpse into the groundbreaking work of this esteemed doctor. In the early 19th century, smallpox was a devastating disease that plagued communities worldwide. However, thanks to pioneers like Luigi Sacco and his innovative approach to vaccination, hope began to emerge. This particular plate captures the very essence of his revolutionary method - using cowpox virus derived from a cow's breast as a means of inoculating against smallpox. The intricate details depicted in this engraving highlight not only Sacco's expertise but also serve as a testament to the dedication and perseverance of medical professionals during that era. It is through their tireless efforts that we have gained invaluable knowledge about diseases and vaccines today. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded of how far medicine has come since those times. From epidemics and outbreaks to pandemics and contagions, our understanding of illness has evolved immensely. This print serves as both a reminder of past struggles and an inspiration for future advancements in healthcare. Giancarlo Costa expertly captures the essence of this remarkable piece with his lens, allowing us all to appreciate its significance within our shared human experience.
