EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century depicts a significant moment in medical history - Doctor Pasteur examining a young boy infected with rabies. The image showcases the dedication and expertise of Louis Pasteur, a renowned French scientist who made groundbreaking contributions to medicine. Rabies, also known as Hydrophobia, is a viral disease that causes inflammation of the brain and is transmissible from animals to humans through bites. In this scene, Doctor Pasteur can be seen carefully examining the patient's abdomen while surrounded by a large group of concerned onlookers. The black and white illustration evokes a sense of somberness and seriousness associated with medical examinations during that era. It offers us a glimpse into the past, where healthcare practices were still evolving but held immense importance in society. The historical significance of this artwork lies not only in its portrayal of an early medical examination but also in highlighting Pasteur's pioneering work on vaccines. His research paved the way for advancements in immunization against various diseases. As we observe this print today, it serves as a reminder of how far medicine has come since then. It honors both Doctor Pasteur's tireless efforts to combat infectious diseases like rabies and the countless lives saved through his scientific breakthroughs.
