EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "The Wounded Man, from Das Buch der Cirugia published Strasbourg" takes us back to the year 1497. Created by the talented artist Brunschwig, this print is a part of the esteemed Stapleton Collection. The image showcases a scene that transports us into the world of medieval medicine. A male victim lies on a wooden table surrounded by medical assistants and a skilled doctor. The man's body bears evidence of various injuries inflicted by weapons such as thorns, swords, arrows, and even a club. Each wound tells its own story - some are cut deep while others appear to be stab wounds. As we delve deeper into this woodcut engraving, we witness the meticulous treatment being administered to save this wounded soul. The surgeon's expertise shines through as he tends to internal organs affected by these brutal attacks. "The Wounded Man" serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also as an important historical document. It represents the first significant German manual of civic medicine based on French and Italian medical writings along with Brunschwig's personal practice and experience. This intriguing piece offers us a glimpse into the past when medical knowledge was still in its infancy but dedicated individuals like Brunschwig were paving the way for advancements in surgical techniques.
