A Doctor's Scientific Experiment, 1893
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and thought-provoking artwork by Theodor Severin Kittelsen. This watercolor on paper print, measuring 27x22 cm, takes us back to the late 19th century when scientific curiosity knew no bounds. In this intriguing scene from Kittelsen's series "Do the Animals have a Soul" we witness an unusual experiment unfold. A doctor, surrounded by his assistants and various creatures of nature, stands in front of a dissection table. The room is filled with anticipation as they delve into the mysteries of life itself. The painting showcases an anthropomorphic world where animals play active roles alongside humans. A drowned rat lies at the forefront, while a toad and frog curiously observe from their perches nearby. Even a skeleton seems engaged in this quest for knowledge. Kittelsen skillfully captures the essence of both quack doctors and genuine specialists who were prevalent during that era. Through vivid illustration and meticulous detailing, he invites viewers to ponder upon questions about life's origins and our place within it. This mesmerizing artwork not only highlights Kittelsen's artistic prowess but also serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit of understanding nature's secrets. As we gaze upon this painting captured by O. Vaering’s lens through Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness this extraordinary moment frozen forever in history.
