EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse into the interior of the Infirmary of the Hospital de la Charite, also known as the hospital of the Freres-de-Saint-Jean-de-Dieu, located in Paris. Engraved by Abraham Bosse and published in Paul Lacroix's "17th century - Institutions: usages et costumes, France 1590-1700" in 1880, this image offers a fascinating insight into healthcare practices during that era. The scene depicted showcases a religious order diligently attending to patients' needs within this charitable institution. The clergy can be seen providing care and comfort to those seeking solace and healing. A doctor is present, symbolizing medical expertise alongside spiritual guidance. The ambiance exudes an aura of compassion and dedication towards improving people's health. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, acts of charity played an integral role in society's well-being. Abraham Bosse's intricate engraving technique brings life to every detail captured within this historical moment. From the architecture of the building itself to the expressions on each person's face, there is much to admire and contemplate about how medical practices have evolved over time. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print from Fine Art Finder by Leonard de Selva, we are transported back to an era where healthcare was intertwined with religious devotion and community support—a testament to humanity's enduring commitment towards caring for one another.
