EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable model of Nicolas Fery, also known as Bebe, who lived from 1741 to 1764. Bebe was an extraordinary dwarf and served as a courtier to King Stanislas Lesczinski of Poland during the 18th century. Created by the French School, this wax sculpture is currently housed in the Musee Orfila in Paris, France. Intriguingly, this model depicts Bebe wearing the very clothes he passed away in. The attention to detail is astonishing and allows us a glimpse into his life and physical appearance. This image offers a unique perspective on medical history and human diversity. Bebe's presence challenges societal norms surrounding physical deformities and celebrates individuality. His role as a courtier highlights how even those considered "freaks" or "abnormalities" could find acceptance within influential circles during that era. The significance of this photograph extends beyond its artistic value; it serves as a testament to our ever-evolving understanding of health and medicine throughout history. By exploring such historical artifacts like this model, we gain insight into how society has evolved in terms of inclusivity and acceptance. As we admire this striking image captured by Bridgeman Images, let us appreciate the courage and resilience demonstrated by individuals like Nicolas Fery (Bebe), who defied expectations while leaving an indelible mark on history.
