EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print titled "Sick and doctors: homeopaths" we are transported back to the year 1843, where a unique perspective on medical care is depicted. The cartoon by Charles Emile Jacque showcases a doctor prescribing a homeopathic medicine to his patient, offering us a glimpse into the world of alternative healing practices during that time. The engraving captures the essence of this unconventional approach to medicine, as the doctor holds out what appears to be a small vial of sweet medicine for his patient. The caricatured figures add an element of humor and playfulness to the scene, while also highlighting the laborious nature of healthcare in those days. This artwork serves as a reminder of how medical consultations have evolved over time and offers insight into French society's perception of health and disease during the 19th century. It invites us to reflect on different approaches to healing and raises questions about our own beliefs regarding traditional versus alternative forms of medicine. Displayed at Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in France, this piece by Luisa Ricciarini allows us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. As we observe this snapshot from history, it prompts us to consider how far we have come in our understanding and treatment of illnesses today.
