EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Those who tremble at the hand of a doctor" takes us back to ancient times, offering a glimpse into the world of medicine in antiquity. The illustration, originally featured in The Works of Hippocrates from 1934, beautifully captures the essence of fear and vulnerability that often accompanies illness. In this scene, we witness a sick woman lying on her sickbed while being examined by a Greek physician. Her face reflects both pain and anxiety as she trembles at the touch of the doctor's hand. The artist, Joseph Kuhn-Regnier, skillfully portrays the delicate balance between trust and apprehension that exists between patients and their medical practitioners. The image serves as a powerful reminder of how far medicine has come since ancient times. It highlights not only our progress in diagnosing and treating illnesses but also our ability to provide comfort and reassurance to those in need. As we contemplate this artwork, it evokes emotions ranging from empathy for the patient's suffering to admiration for the dedication and expertise displayed by physicians throughout history. It is an invitation to reflect on our own experiences with healthcare professionals and appreciate their tireless efforts in preserving our health. This timeless piece from Bridgeman Images invites us to ponder upon themes such as healing, trust, resilience, and ultimately reminds us of humanity's enduring quest for well-being.
