Edward Jenner, British physician C017 / 7108
Edward Jenner (1749-1823), British physician. Jenner, who also did work as a naturalist, is famed for developing a vaccine for the often fatal viral infection smallpox (syringe in hand). He investigated folk tales about the immunity of cowpox victims to smallpox. In 1796 he used a thorn to inoculate a healthy boy with fluid from a cowpox blister on a dairy maids finger. Six weeks later he inoculated the boy with smallpox, and the boy did not develop the disease. The immunising process was named vaccination after the cowpox virus (vaccinia), and was made compulsory in Britain in 1853. Jenner was elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1788 for his work on the cuckoo

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned British physician, Edward Jenner, who revolutionized medical history with his groundbreaking work on smallpox vaccination. In this portrait, we see a distinguished and determined man holding a syringe in hand, symbolizing his pivotal role in developing the life-saving vaccine. Edward Jenner's curiosity led him to investigate folk tales about cowpox victims' immunity to smallpox. In 1796, he fearlessly inoculated a healthy boy with fluid from a cowpox blister on a dairy maid's finger using nothing but a thorn. Astonishingly, six weeks later when Jenner exposed the boy to smallpox, he remained unscathed by the deadly disease. Jenner's revolutionary immunization process was aptly named vaccination after the cowpox virus (vaccinia). Its success prompted Britain to make it compulsory in 1853, saving countless lives from the clutches of smallpox. Beyond his contributions as a physician and scientist, Edward Jenner also had an affinity for nature and ornithology. His dedication earned him recognition as Fellow of the Royal Society in 1788 for his work on cuckoos. This remarkable artwork captures not only Jenner's scientific achievements but also pays homage to his significant impact on medicine and public health during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It serves as an enduring reminder of how one individual can change the course of history through relentless pursuit of knowledge and innovation.
