EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing piece of Chinese history and medical practice. Titled "Chinese Acupuncture: the meridian of the three heaters, 1679" this artwork was created by an unknown artist in the 17th century. It is part of a private collection and has been beautifully captured by Leonard de Selva. The image depicts an anatomical board that reveals the intricate knowledge and understanding of acupuncture in ancient China. The meridian of the three heaters, also known as Sanjiao or Triple Burner, is highlighted in this illustration. This particular meridian plays a vital role in regulating body temperature and fluid metabolism according to traditional Chinese medicine. Through meticulous drawing, this artwork not only reflects the expertise of an Asian anatomist but also offers valuable insights into natural history and health practices from centuries ago. Acupuncture, a key component of traditional Chinese medicine, continues to be widely practiced today for its potential therapeutic benefits. Leonard de Selva's photograph allows us to appreciate this historical artifact while reminding us of the rich cultural heritage associated with acupuncture and its impact on human well-being. As we admire this image, we are transported back in time to witness how ancient civilizations like China embraced holistic approaches towards healthcare long before modern advancements came into play.
