EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 15th-century print, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in medical history. The scene depicts a skilled physician diligently applying a Bezoar stone to a victim of poisoning, offering hope and salvation amidst the perils of toxic substances. This ancient remedy was extracted from the gall-bladder or stomach of animals like goats or antelopes, believed to possess counter-poison properties. Set against the backdrop of Strasbourg's picturesque hills, the doctor stands tall and focused, his three-quarter-length figure exuding confidence and expertise. The building exterior behind them hints at the rich historical context surrounding this groundbreaking medical practice. As we observe this illustration technique with awe-inspiring detail, it becomes evident that only men were entrusted with such critical healthcare responsibilities during this era. Both figures divert their gaze away from us as they concentrate on their life-saving task at hand. The authenticity and craftsmanship showcased in this artwork transport us into an era where medicine was still shrouded in mystery but driven by unwavering determination to heal. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our ceaseless pursuit of knowledge throughout history. This remarkable print captures not just an isolated event but also represents a significant milestone in medical progress – one that continues to inspire modern-day practitioners who strive for breakthroughs while honoring centuries-old traditions.
