EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving from 1495 by an unknown artist, depicting Johannes de Ketham, a German physician who lived in Italy at the end of the fifteenth century. Known for his groundbreaking work in human health, Ketham authored the first medicine book to include anatomical illustrations, titled "Fasciculus medicinae" in 1491.
In this scene captured in black and white, we see Ketham surrounded by his disciples in a university laboratory setting. The atmosphere is filled with an air of knowledge and culture as the group engages in deep discussion about medicine and anatomy. Ketham stands tall and authoritative, dressed in traditional attire befitting a man of his stature - a cape draped over his shoulders and a toga wrapped around him.
The intricate details of this engraving transport us back to the Renaissance era, where education was highly valued and scientific exploration was at its peak. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into the world of one of history's most influential doctors and educators.
As we admire this piece of artistry, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by figures like Johannes de Ketham who dedicated their lives to advancing our understanding of human health and well-being.
