EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Accidents caracteristiques de la syphilis a la periode secondaire" by the French School in the 19th century offers a poignant glimpse into the medical world of that era. The image, part of a private collection, showcases the devastating effects of syphilis during its secondary stage. The young woman depicted in this colour lithograph is an embodiment of suffering and vulnerability. Her delicate features are overshadowed by the visible signs of her illness, serving as a stark reminder of the harsh realities faced by those afflicted with this sexually transmitted disease. The artwork was created as an illustration for "Les Grands Maux et Les Grands Remedes" by J Rengade, published around 1890. It sheds light on both the diseases themselves and their treatments available at that time. The detailed depiction allows us to witness firsthand how medicine attempted to combat these afflictions through various remedies. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of our progress in medical science but also of our duty to prevent such suffering from occurring again. This photograph serves as a testament to human resilience and highlights the importance of education and awareness when it comes to sexual health. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, viewers can explore historical artworks like this one that offer valuable insights into our collective past while encouraging us to strive for better futures.
