EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the typical enlarged spleen of a Malaria patient, shedding light on the devastating effects of this infectious disease. Malaria is caused by a parasitic protozoa that is transmitted through the bite of an Anopheles mosquito. Until the 1930s, when medical advancements revolutionized treatment options, the only effective remedy for this ailment was Quinine. This drug, derived from the bark of the Cinchona tree native to South America, played a crucial role in combating Malaria. The image also offers historical significance as it comes from Les Grands Maux et les Grands Remedes (The Principal Illnesses and Their Remedies), a publication by Jules Rengade dating back to around 1890. The book explores various diseases and their corresponding treatments during that era. Interestingly, Quinine was commonly referred to as Peruvian bark due to its origin in South America or Jesuits bark because Spanish missionary priests introduced it to Europe. Its discovery and subsequent use marked a significant milestone in medicine's battle against Malaria. As we observe this photograph, we are reminded of both humanity's triumphs over infectious diseases and our continuous efforts to develop more advanced remedies for global health challenges like Malaria.
