EDITORS COMMENTS
This enigmatic engraving captures the upper body of Nathaniel St. Andre, also known as "Rabbit Doctor," an unfortunate figure in the annals of medical history. St. Andre, a respected surgeon with a promising career, was inexplicably drawn into the bizarre phenomenon of Mary Tofts, the so-called "Rabbit Breeder," in the early 18th century. Tofts, a humble laborer from Godalming, England, claimed to have given birth to a series of rabbits, captivating the curiosity and skepticism of the public. St. Andre, intrigued by the case, attended to Tofts, believing her claims to be genuine. However, the deception was soon uncovered, leaving St. Andre's reputation in ruins. The once-promising surgeon was ridiculed and shunned by his peers, marking a sad end to his once-illustrious career. In this image, St. Andre is depicted with a pensive expression, his wig neatly arranged, and a somber countenance. The engraving, dated II, from the HPG collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, serves as a poignant reminder of the dangers of blind belief and the consequences of being deceived. The baleful impact on St. Andre's life stands in stark contrast to the frivolous nature of the rabbit breeding phenomenon, underscoring the importance of critical thinking and skepticism in the face of extraordinary claims. Despite the sad turn of events, St. Andre's story remains an intriguing chapter in the history of medicine and human gullibility. This engraving, a haunting testament to the past, continues to fascinate historians, medical professionals, and curious minds alike.
