EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable marble relief from ancient Greece, dating back to the 5th century BC. The intricate carving depicts either Asclepius or Hippocrates, two legendary figures in the field of medicine, tending to an ailing woman. Standing in full length, the doctor exudes an air of wisdom and compassion as he attends to his patient. The image transports us back to an ancient civilization where illness and suffering were prevalent. The sadness etched on the faces of both the doctor and the woman evoke a sense of empathy for their plight. Despite being damaged with cracks over time, this bas relief still manages to convey its historical significance. Displayed against a colored background in a studio shot, this archaeological artifact takes center stage as it represents not only artistry but also human representation at its finest. Both male and female likenesses are captured with great attention to detail while wearing traditional clothing. As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded of how far healthcare and medicine have come since ancient times. It serves as a poignant reminder of our past and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to healing others. This print is truly a treasure that allows us to appreciate the rich history behind it while marveling at its beauty and craftsmanship.
