EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "We are going to incise the muscles, saw the bones, in a word, heal the sick from Scenes from the Private and Public Life of Animals" takes us back to 19th century France. Created by Jean Ignace Isidore Gerard, also known as Grandville, this artwork showcases his unique talent for anthropomorphism. In this intriguing scene, we witness an extraordinary blend of human and animal characteristics. A carpenter shark turned surgeon is diligently explaining a surgical procedure to a group of attentive aquatic creatures. With precision and expertise, he prepares to incise muscles and saw bones with utmost care. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this wood engraving masterpiece. The expressions on each character's face convey their dedication towards healing the sick animals around them. This thought-provoking image not only highlights Grandville's artistic prowess but also reflects upon the importance of medicine in society during that era. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a testament to Balzac Honore de Honore Balssa's profound influence on French literature and culture. It reminds us of how art can transcend boundaries by merging different realms into one cohesive narrative. With its historical significance and aesthetic appeal, this photograph offers viewers an opportunity to delve into 19th-century France while contemplating themes such as science, occupation, and humanity's relationship with animals.
