EDITORS COMMENTS
William Sermon (1629-1679): A Pioneering Medical Practitioner and Physician Ordinary to Charles II This evocative portrait captures the distinguished face of William Sermon, a medical practitioner and physician ordinary to King Charles II of England (r. 1660-1685). Born in 1629, Sermon made significant contributions to the field of medicine during a time of great scientific discovery and social upheaval. Sermon's medical career began in the 1650s, during the Interregnum, when the practice of medicine was largely unregulated. He gained a reputation for his expertise in anatomy, surgery, and the treatment of venereal diseases. In 1660, with the restoration of the monarchy, Sermon was appointed physician ordinary to King Charles II, a position he held until his death in 1679. As a leading medical figure of his time, Sermon was a member of the Royal Society, an organization dedicated to the advancement of science. He was also a prolific writer, publishing numerous works on various medical topics, including an influential treatise on the treatment of gout. This portrait, likely taken towards the end of Sermon's life, conveys a sense of wisdom and authority. The physician's stern expression and the intricately detailed clothing suggest a man of great learning and refinement. The use of chiaroscuro, or strong contrasts between light and dark, adds depth and texture to the image, further emphasizing Sermon's importance as a historical figure. William Sermon's legacy as a pioneering medical practitioner and physician ordinary to Charles II continues to be celebrated in the annals of medical history. His dedication to the pursuit of knowledge and his commitment to the health and wellbeing of his patients make him an enduring symbol of the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity and advance the cause of science and medicine.
