EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 15th century, offering a glimpse into the world of medicine and scientific exploration during that time. The image is a manuscript page from a French version of De proprietatibus rerum by Bartholomaeus Anglicus, carefully preserved in the collection of the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. In this scene, we witness a group of individuals engaged in an intricate dissection process. A skilled surgeon stands at the center, his scalpel poised with precision as he delicately cuts through layers of flesh on a naked human body laid out on a wooden table. Surrounding him are other men, possibly medical students or fellow physicians, observing intently and absorbing knowledge about anatomy and physiology. The room exudes an air of both curiosity and solemnity. The presence of a dog nearby adds to the atmosphere, perhaps symbolizing loyalty or serving as an aid for anatomical comparisons. This thought-provoking artwork captures not only the advancement in medical science but also reflects society's evolving understanding of life and death during medieval times. The artist skillfully employs color and detail to bring this historical moment to life. Every stroke contributes to our understanding of this significant period in history when scholars like Bartholomaeus Anglicus sought to unravel mysteries hidden within our own bodies. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded once again that art has always been intertwined with science throughout centuries past.
