EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of Laurentius Friesens' renowned work, "Spiegel der Artzney" published in 1532. The woodcut design, crafted by Hans Weiditz, transports us to the Renaissance era and offers a glimpse into the world of ancient and medieval physicians. The focal point of this intricate artwork is a collection of portraits depicting these esteemed healers from different periods in history. Their wise gazes and dignified postures evoke a sense of reverence for their contributions to medicine. Surrounding them is an exquisite representation of Venus and Adonis amidst a lush garden, symbolizing beauty and vitality. The German typeface used for the title page adds an authentic touch to this historical artifact. It reminds us that this book was not only a source of knowledge but also an artistic masterpiece. As we delve into its pages, we are transported back in time to explore the early practices and beliefs surrounding medicine. This print serves as a reminder that healing has always been deeply rooted in human culture, transcending time and place. Granger Art on Demand presents this remarkable piece captured by Granger NYC / The Granger Collection.
