EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Why pay a doctor?" takes us back to the streets of 19th century England, shedding light on the harsh conditions faced by the poor. The engraving, created by Frederick L. Bernard, is part of a private collection and was originally featured in George R Sims' book "How The Poor Live" with illustrations by Frederick Barnard. The image depicts a bustling street scene where poverty-stricken individuals seek medical assistance from a charlatan selling remedies. In this era before modern healthcare systems, many people had limited access to proper medical services and relied on questionable alternatives for their ailments. The Victorian setting adds an air of nostalgia as we witness the struggles faced by those living in poverty-stricken areas of London. The presence of drugs being sold highlights both desperation and exploitation within society. Interestingly, the caption mentions Germany and its influence on medical practices during that time period. It alludes to Asklepios, the Greek god associated with healing and medicine, suggesting that German culture played a role in shaping healthcare approaches in Europe. Overall, this thought-provoking image invites us to reflect upon the disparities between social classes when it comes to accessing quality healthcare—a topic still relevant today despite advancements in medical science and technology.
