EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Accidents caracteristiques et principales lesions du scorbut" provides a vivid depiction of the characteristic accidents and main lesions associated with scurvy. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection. The image serves as an illustration for J Rengade's book "Les Grands Maux et Les Grands Remedes" published by Librairies Illustree around 1890. It offers valuable insights into the medical field, specifically focusing on diseases and their treatments during that era. Intriguingly, this artwork sheds light on the distressing impact of scurvy on human health. The viewer can observe various symptoms such as purpura (purple discoloration caused by bleeding under the skin), hemorrhages (abnormal bleeding), and other distinctive signs of illness. Through its detailed portrayal, this print emphasizes both the gravity of scurvy as a disease and the importance of effective remedies to combat it. From defibrination du sang (blood clotting disorder) to passive hemorrhages, these illustrations highlight crucial aspects in understanding and treating this ailment. Overall, this thought-provoking piece from Bridgeman Images invites viewers to delve into historical medicine while contemplating how far we have come in our understanding and treatment of diseases like scurvy.
