EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 15th century, offering a glimpse into the interior of a physician's house. Created in 1849 by artist A Bisson, this engraving is based on an original manuscript illustration from Othea, held in the Royal Library of Brussels. The image is featured in Volume III of "Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance" by Paul Lacroix, Ferdinand Sere, and A Rivaud. In this scene, we see a male physician sitting indoors amidst his collection of books and scientific instruments. Dressed in traditional attire befitting his profession, he dons a hat while holding a phial containing medicine or potion. This portrayal highlights the importance placed on science and healing during that era. The attention to detail in this print allows us to appreciate both the architectural elements of the building as well as the intricacies of the physician's dress. It transports us back centuries ago when medicine was still evolving but already held great significance within society. As we observe this snapshot from history captured through monochrome artistry, we are reminded of Christine de Pisan's influential works during that time period. This piece serves as a testament to her contributions towards advancing knowledge and understanding within various fields.
