EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sick and doctors: the oculist" transports us back to a medical consultation in 1843. The engraving, created by Charles Emile Jacque, depicts a doctor examining a patient's eyes with great care and expertise. This cartoon-like illustration is part of the larger series called "sick and doctors" which aimed to shed light on various medical professions during that era. The scene captures the essence of daily life in France at the time, showcasing the significance placed on health and well-being. Through this artwork, we witness the laborious nature of being an oculist - a specialist in eye diseases - as he diligently attends to his patient's needs. The artist Luisa Ricciarini beautifully brings out every intricate detail through her interpretation of this historical moment. The lines etched into the print emphasize not only the physical aspects but also convey deeper meanings about human experiences with disease and our relentless pursuit for better eyesight. Displayed at Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet, this engraving serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool for those interested in understanding medical practices from centuries past. It reminds us of how far we have come in terms of healthcare advancements while honoring those who dedicated their lives to providing essential care to patients.
