EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Cough Preventative" we are transported back in time to the bustling streets of London in 1877. The image captures a street doctor, with his makeshift stall adorned with an array of medicines, peppermints, herbal pills, and lozenges. This original artwork is part of the iconic series "Street Life In London" by John Thomson and Adolphe Smith. The photograph exudes a sense of authenticity as it showcases the daily struggles faced by both the working class and those seeking medical assistance during that era. The street doctor's presence on the busy thoroughfare symbolizes a beacon of hope for those afflicted with coughs or other ailments. John Thomson's keen eye for detail is evident in every aspect of this composition. From the worn-out clothes worn by passersby to the expressions etched on their faces, each element tells a story about life at that time. This print serves as a reminder not only of how far medicine has advanced but also highlights society's resilience when faced with adversity. It invites us to reflect upon our own progress while paying homage to those who paved the way before us.
