EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to ancient Greece, specifically to the amphitheatre at Pergamum. In this historical moment captured by an artist's reconstruction published in Paris in 1866, we witness Galen, a renowned Greek physician, tending to the wounded gladiators. The scene unfolds with Galen standing near a large open door inside the amphitheatre. Surrounded by a medium group of men - only men were present during these events - he attentively looks away from them as if deep in thought. The injured warriors lie on makeshift beds nearby, their pain evident but their trust placed firmly in Galen's expertise. This image not only offers us a glimpse into ancient medical practices but also sheds light on French culture during the 19th century when it was created. It serves as a testament to France's appreciation for art and craft as well as its fascination with history and healthcare. Through intricate illustration techniques employed by the artist, every detail is meticulously portrayed: from the architecture of the amphitheatre to Galen's attire and expression. This print transports us back thousands of years while simultaneously reminding us of how far medicine has advanced since then. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved through photography, we are reminded of both our past and our progress – an everlasting tribute to those who dedicated their lives to healing others like Galen did so many centuries ago.
