EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching by Cornelis Dusart, titled "The Cupper (Kopster)," dates back to the Baroque era of the 17th century in the Netherlands. The image portrays an intriguing scene of an alternative medical treatment, with three people engaged in the process of cupping. The central figure, a quack doctor or "Kopster," skillfully applies suction to the bare feet of a woman, who sits uncomfortably in a washtub filled with water. Another woman assists the doctor, holding a tray of small cups. Cupping was a popular form of therapy during this time, believed to promote healing and relieve various ailments by creating a vacuum on the skin. The procedure, though considered unpleasant, was widely practiced and sought after due to the perceived benefits. The etching, with its intricate details, showcases the intimacy and interaction between the individuals involved in the treatment. The use of black and white contrasts effectively highlights the textures of the bodies and the roughness of the surroundings, adding to the authenticity of the scene. This etching is a fascinating glimpse into the medical practices of the past and the role of art in documenting and preserving historical knowledge. It is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the human body, as well as the ingenuity of the people who sought to understand and care for it. The etching, by Cornelis Dusart, is a valuable addition to any art collection, art center, art gallery, or art institute, adding depth and context to the study of the human body, alternative medicine, and the history of art itself.
