Paracelsus Aracelsus (1493-1541), Swiss-born German physician and alchemist
Paracelsus Aracelsus (Theophrastus Bombastus Von Hohenheim) (1493-1541), Swiss-born German physician and alchemist. Paracelsus studied at Vienna University before becoming a military surgeon in the service of Venice. This enabled him to travel extensively in Europe and the Middle East, learning about alchemy. He set up a practice in Strasbourg in 1526, before moving to Basel the following year as town physician. He gained a considerable reputation as a healer. Paracelsus was the first to describe the lung disease silicosis, connected goitre with minerals in drinking water, and recognised the importance of chemistry in medicine (Iatrochemistry)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Paracelsus Aracelsus, a renowned Swiss-born German physician and alchemist of the 16th century. The image captures his profound dedication to medicine and science, as well as his significant contributions to the field. Born in 1493, Paracelsus studied at Vienna University before embarking on a remarkable journey that took him across Europe and the Middle East. His experiences as a military surgeon in Venice allowed him to gain invaluable knowledge about alchemy and its connection to medicine. In 1526, Paracelsus established his practice in Strasbourg before eventually settling in Basel the following year. It was there that he became widely recognized for his exceptional healing abilities. Notably, he was the first to describe silicosis, a lung disease caused by inhaling silica dust. Additionally, he made groundbreaking connections between goitre and minerals present in drinking water. Paracelsus's pioneering work emphasized the importance of chemistry within medical practices—an approach known as Iatrochemistry—which revolutionized healthcare during this era. The artist behind this striking portrait is Quentin Metsys I, who beautifully captures Paracelsus's intellect and determination through intricate details and vibrant colors. This print serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also as a tribute to one of history's most influential figures in medicine.
