C1890 Disease Drugs Grands Infection Jules Modern Rare Skin Suffering Tuberculosis Vulgaris
EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the suffering of a woman afflicted with Lupus Vulgaris, a disfiguring tubercular skin infection. In the late 19th century, this disease was a source of great pain and stigma for those affected by it. However, thanks to advancements in modern medicine and the development of effective drugs for tuberculosis, Lupus Vulgaris is now considered rare.
The woman in the photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the progress that has been made in treating once-debilitating illnesses. Her expression conveys both physical discomfort and emotional distress, highlighting the toll that such conditions can take on an individual's well-being.
Jules Rengade's depiction of this woman's struggle is both powerful and thought-provoking. Through his work, he sheds light on the harsh realities faced by those living with chronic diseases in an era before widespread access to medical care.
Today, we are fortunate to have more options available for managing conditions like Lupus Vulgaris. While cases may be rare now, it is important to remember those who suffered before us and continue working towards better treatments for all individuals facing health challenges. This print stands as a testament to resilience in the face of adversity and serves as a reminder of how far we have come in our understanding and treatment of medical conditions.
