EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hot coals, illustration from The Works of Hippocrates" takes us back to the ancient world of Greece. Created in 1934 by Joseph Kuhn-Regnier, this colourful lithograph showcases a scene filled with historical significance. In this image, we witness a female blacksmith diligently working amidst a medical setting. She is surrounded by soldiers and patients seeking treatment for various ailments. With her expertise as both a physician and a skilled artisan, she utilizes hot coals to aid in their healing process. The atmosphere exudes an air of antiquity as the male doctor points towards the coal fire, guiding his patients towards recovery. This depiction highlights the ingenuity and resourcefulness of medical practitioners during that era. The artist's attention to detail transports us into this ancient Greek world where medicine intertwines with craftsmanship. It sheds light on how individuals with disabilities were not only cared for but also utilized as workers in trades such as shoemaking and blacksmithing. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of Hippocrates himself – the renowned Greek physician who revolutionized medicine through his teachings and writings. This print serves as a testament to his enduring legacy and continues to inspire awe at the intersection between artistry, science, and healing throughout history.
