EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of medical history. Titled "Reduction or Setting of a fractured femur" the image depicts an intricate scene from the year 1466, captured on vellum by Charaf-ed-Din, a renowned Persian surgeon. The artwork is part of the Ms Sup Turc 693 fol. 188 collection housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. It originates from a translation of a Persian Treatise on surgery called La Chirurgie Imperiale, composed around 1300. In this mesmerizing illustration, we witness an Ottoman doctor skillfully attending to his patient's broken femur. The attention to detail and precision with which every element is depicted truly highlights Charaf-ed-Din's mastery as both an artist and surgeon. The historical significance of this artwork lies not only in its artistic beauty but also in its representation of medical practices during that era. It offers us insight into the advancements made in surgical techniques within Islamic culture during Hegira 870 (around the late 15th century). As we admire this extraordinary piece, let us appreciate how it bridges cultures and time periods – showcasing Arabic medicine intertwined with Turkish and Persian influences. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our continuous pursuit of knowledge throughout history.
