EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a sketch titled "In the Hospital" by Jean Louis Forain, a renowned French artist from the late 19th to early 20th century. Created during either the fourth quarter of the 1800s or the first third of the 1900s, this black and red chalk masterpiece offers a glimpse into an era where hospitals were undergoing significant transformations. The sketch depicts a scene within a hospital setting, capturing both its physical environment and human interactions. With meticulous attention to detail, Forain skillfully portrays doctors, nurses, patients, and visitors in their daily activities. The use of black and red chalk adds depth and intensity to every stroke on the sheet measuring approximately 36.9 x 54.9 cm. Forain's ability to capture emotions through his art is evident in this piece as well. Whether it be expressions of pain or compassion, each figure conveys a unique narrative that invites viewers to contemplate life within these medical walls during that time period. As we admire this remarkable print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time - witnessing firsthand how hospitals evolved over several decades while appreciating Forain's artistic prowess. This photograph serves as not just an aesthetic delight but also as a historical document shedding light on healthcare practices from long ago.
