EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nosebleed, illustration from The Works of Hippocrates" takes us back to the ancient world of Greek medicine. Created in 1934 by Joseph Kuhn-Regnier, this color lithograph showcases a significant moment in medical history. The image depicts a young woman, the daughter of Daitharsee, experiencing her first menstruation and suffering from a profuse nosebleed as a result. This scene is taken from the book Epidemies, Premier Livre by Hippocrates himself - the father of modern medicine. Intriguingly detailed, we see an ancient physician attentively treating the distressed patient. Holding a bowl beneath her bleeding nostrils, he skillfully attempts to stop the flow while providing comfort and care. The nakedness of both figures adds vulnerability and emphasizes their focus on healing rather than personal modesty. This artwork not only captures an intimate medical moment but also symbolizes our timeless quest for understanding and curing illnesses. It reminds us that even thousands of years ago, physicians were diligently working to alleviate suffering and improve lives through their knowledge and expertise. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported to an era where medical practices were still evolving but already held immense importance in society's well-being.
