EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting coloured engraving from the 19th century depicts a child suffering from impetigo, a painful and contagious skin condition. The detailed illustration captures the anguish on the child's face as they battle this illness.
The artist, part of the French School, skillfully conveys the physical toll that impetigo takes on its young victim. The red sores and blisters covering the child's face are a stark reminder of the harsh realities of sickness in days gone by.
This print was originally created for a medical publication titled "La Nature et L'Homme, La Vie Normale et La Sante" by Dr J Rengade in 1881. It serves as both an educational tool and a historical record of how diseases like impetigo were understood and treated in the past.
Looking at this image today, we are reminded of how far medicine has come in treating such conditions. It also serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience of children throughout history who have faced illness with courage and strength.
As we gaze upon this engraving, let us remember to be grateful for modern advancements in healthcare while also acknowledging the suffering endured by those who came before us.
