EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures the suffering of a young child afflicted with Measles (Rubeola: Morbilli), an airborne viral infection that was once widespread. Taken in 1890 by Jules Rengade, this portrait showcases the stark reality faced by countless children before the introduction of routine vaccines in 1964. The image portrays a girl seated on a studio backdrop, her naked body covered in spots indicative of the measles rash. Her curly blonde hair frames her face as she looks directly at the camera, conveying both vulnerability and resilience. With one hand resting on her knee, she sits cross-legged, embodying strength despite evident pain. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of medical history and highlights the progress made in healthcare and medicine over time. It symbolizes not only the individual suffering endured by this young girl but also represents countless others who fell victim to this infectious disease during that era. Jules Rengade's work from "Les Grands Maux et les Grands Remedes" offers us a glimpse into a past where diseases like measles were prevalent and lacked effective treatments or preventive measures. Through its vertical composition and intimate portrayal, this image invites viewers to reflect upon how far we have come in combating such illnesses through scientific research and advancements in healthcare practices.
