EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving of Claudius Galenus of Pergamum, a prominent figure in the field of medicine during the 2nd century. The French School's meticulous craftsmanship is evident in this 16th-century artwork, now housed at the Musee d'Histoire de la Medecine in Paris, France. Galenus, as he was commonly known, served as the personal physician to Marcus Aurelius, leaving an indelible mark on ancient Roman healthcare. This intriguing portrait captures his profound intellect and expertise in anatomical studies and medical practices. The image exudes a sense of intellectual curiosity as Galenus gazes into the distance with determination. His profile reveals a man deeply immersed in his work - exploring theories of humours and unraveling mysteries surrounding human anatomy. As one delves deeper into this remarkable piece, it becomes apparent that Galenus' contributions to medicine were groundbreaking. His teachings laid the foundation for centuries of medical knowledge and shaped our understanding of health and wellness. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this historical artifact from eArchives Charmet for all to appreciate. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Galenus' immense impact on medicine but also how art can serve as a powerful medium for preserving history itself.
