This print titled "The Influenza" takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of sickness and health during that time. Created by Lucien Davis in 1890, this engraving showcases men and women dealing with the dreaded influenza outbreak. As we observe the image closely, we see people from all walks of life suffering from this contagious illness. The artist skillfully captures their expressions of pain and discomfort, reminding us of the severity of influenza's impact on society. Surrounding them are various treatment methods being employed - some individuals receive medical attention while others rely on home remedies or self-care. The interior setting adds an intimate touch to the scene, emphasizing how deeply personal this experience was for those affected.
