1893 Ailments Vaccinating Vaccination Vaccinations
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in medical history - the vaccination against smallpox taking place on a bustling street in Paris in 1893. The image showcases a group of individuals, including doctors and patients, gathered together to receive this life-saving treatment.
During the late 19th century, smallpox was a widespread and deadly disease that caused immense suffering and death across Europe. Vaccination campaigns like the one depicted in this photograph were crucial in combating the spread of this highly contagious ailment.
The scene is filled with palpable tension and anticipation as people line up to receive their vaccinations from healthcare professionals. The use of cow lymph for inoculation can be seen, highlighting the primitive yet effective methods used during this time period.
The architecture of Parisian buildings serves as a backdrop to this historic moment, adding an element of urban realism to the image. The fashion and hairstyles worn by those present also provide a glimpse into daily life in the 1890s.
Overall, this print is not only visually striking but also serves as a reminder of the advancements made in medicine over the years. It stands as a testament to human resilience and determination in overcoming deadly diseases through vaccination efforts.
