EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration from the Emblemata of Zinne-werk by Johannes de Brune takes us back to a bygone era, where traditional medicine practices were both intriguing and peculiar. The scene depicts a domestic interior, with a doctor seated on a chair while applying leeches to a female patient's arm. The artist, Adriaen Pietersz van de Venne, skillfully captures the satirical essence of this medical scene. Dressed in traditional costumes of the Golden Age, both the doctor and patient are portrayed with exaggerated features that add an element of humor to the composition. In this vignette, we witness an emblematic representation of the saying "De mensch vint baet, in anders quaed" (Man finds benefit in another's harm). It highlights how people sought remedies for their ailments even if they involved unconventional methods such as leech therapy. The intricate details and delicate engravings showcase Van de Venne's mastery as an illustrator. Each stroke brings life to this satirical portrayal of medical practices during that time period. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported into an age when medicine was still evolving and doctors relied on unorthodox treatments. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in our understanding and approach to healthcare today.
