EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Mort de Hannah Greener, pendant l inspiration des vapeurs de chloroforme" captures a significant moment in the history of science and medicine. Created by the European School in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection. The image depicts the death of Hannah Greener during the inhalation of chloroform vapors. It serves as an illustration for Louis Figuier's book "Les Merveilles De La Science ou Description Populaire des Inventions Modernes" published around 1870. This artwork showcases both the progress and wonders of scientific discovery during that time. Intriguingly, this engraving sheds light on one aspect of medical advancement - anesthesia. The use of chloroform as an anesthetic was a groundbreaking development in surgery, allowing patients to undergo procedures without experiencing pain or discomfort. This historical artifact not only highlights the invention itself but also emphasizes its impact on society and human mortality. By popularizing such inventions through illustrations like these, Figuier aimed to educate and captivate readers about modern industrial advancements. Through this powerful visual representation, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of medical knowledge and technological innovation. This engraving stands as a testament to our continuous pursuit of understanding and improving our world through science and engineering.
