EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Bath seat, illustration from The Works of Hippocrates" takes us back in time to ancient Greece, where the art of medicine was born. Created by Joseph Kuhn-Regnier in 1934, this colour lithograph showcases a scene from Hippocrates' renowned medical treatise. In this image, we witness a female patient seeking relief from her illness through a warm sitz bath while sipping on sweet wine. With an air of serenity and trust, she is attended to by a dedicated servant who carefully pours water into the bath. A physician stands nearby, observing and perhaps offering guidance for her treatment. The composition exudes antiquity as it transports us to an era when medical practices were still evolving. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people sought remedies for their ailments with faith in the healing powers of water and natural substances like wine. This artwork not only captures the essence of Greek medicine but also highlights the importance of holistic care and personalized treatments throughout history. As we gaze upon this historical moment frozen in time, we are reminded that health has always been valued above all else – regardless of time or place. With its rich symbolism and intricate details, this print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by Hippocrates and his contributions to modern medicine.
