EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century depicts a scene of bovine tuberculosis, showcasing the intricate details and skillful craftsmanship of German School artists. The print, part of a private collection, was originally created as an illustration for Anna Fischer's book "La Femme, Medecin du Foyer" (The Woman, Doctor of the Home) around 1900. In this powerful image, we witness a female doctor examining the lungs of an infected ox. The artist masterfully captures the intensity and seriousness of the situation as she delicately inspects the animal for signs of disease. The presence of tuberculosis is highlighted by its impact on both human health and livestock welfare. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of how diseases can affect not only humans but also animals in our care. It underscores the importance of hygiene and medical knowledge in preventing such illnesses from spreading within cattle populations. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded that throughout history women have played crucial roles in medicine and healthcare. This portrayal showcases their dedication to understanding diseases like bovine tuberculosis and finding ways to protect both human beings and animals alike. With its rich symbolism and attention to detail, this print offers us a glimpse into past medical practices while emphasizing timeless themes surrounding health, illness, compassion towards animals, and advancements in medical science.
