EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph showcases a stink pot, an intriguing artifact used during the devastating Great Plague of London in 1665-1666. The image depicts a cylindrical container emitting fumes, which were believed to have protective properties against the contagious disease that ravaged the city. The stink pot was utilized as part of a fumigation process during this dark period in history. It was filled with various substances such as herbs, spices, and other aromatic materials thought to purify the air and ward off harmful miasmas believed to carry the plague. These pots were strategically placed around homes and public spaces in an attempt to combat the spread of infection. This lithograph is based on an illustration from "The Great Plague in London in 1665" by Walter George Bell, published in 1924. The artist's attention to detail allows us to glimpse into this historical event and understand one method employed by desperate individuals seeking protection from the deadly epidemic. As we observe this print today, it serves as a reminder of humanity's resilience and resourcefulness when faced with unimaginable challenges. It also highlights how medical science has evolved over time, leading us towards more effective methods for combating infectious diseases. Through this artwork, we are transported back centuries ago when fear gripped London but also witness our ability to adapt and overcome adversity throughout history.
