EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from the Galerie medicale collection showcases Wilhelm Fabry, a renowned German surgeon who made significant contributions to the field of medicine during the 16th and 17th centuries. Born in Hilden, Germany, Fabry is also known as Guilelmus Fabricius Hildanus or Fabricius von Hilden. Throughout his career, he worked diligently in various cities including Dusseldorf, Payerne, and Bern. Fabry's expertise in surgery led him to write numerous medical books on the subject. His most notable work, Observationum et Curationum Chirurgicarum Centuriae (1641), described surgical cases that were published posthumously. This masterpiece solidified his reputation as one of the pioneers of German surgery and earned him the title "Father of German Surgery". The monochrome artwork beautifully captures Fabry's dignified presence with a head and shoulders portrait. The illustration depicts an adult Caucasian male wearing traditional attire from the 16th century—a true representation of historical significance. As we admire this print by Pierre Roch Vigneron from 1825-1829, we are reminded of Wilhelm Fabry's lasting impact on medicine and surgery. His dedication to advancing surgical techniques continues to inspire generations of physicians worldwide. This image serves as a tribute to his remarkable legacy and reminds us of how far modern medicine has come thanks to brilliant minds like Wilhelm Fabry's.
