EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a significant moment in the history of public health in America. In the scorching summer of 1870, we witness a man being stretchered into the Hospital for Sunstruck Patients located on Centre Street, City Hall Park, New York City. The illustration, originally featured in Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, showcases the interior of this pioneering hospital dedicated to treating individuals suffering from sunstroke. The image transports us back to an era when public facilities were limited but essential for combating health crises. This particular hospital catered specifically to those affected by sunstroke during a time when understanding and treatment options were still developing. It serves as a reminder of how far medical science has come since then. With its archival charm and historical significance, this picture offers us a glimpse into the past – an era where public health initiatives were gaining momentum across America. Ken Welsh's expertly crafted print allows us to appreciate both the artistry and importance behind this engraving from 19th-century America. As we admire this piece, let it serve as a tribute not only to our progress in healthcare but also as a testament to our collective commitment towards ensuring well-being for all members of society throughout history.
