EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating print captures a glimpse into the world of medieval medicine, specifically the treatment of nasal afflictions in the 12th century. The detailed drawing depicts a procedure where a polypus is being cut out of the nose, as indicated by the Latin text 'Fungus de nase sic inciditur'.
In this era, medical knowledge and practices were vastly different from what we know today. It's intriguing to see how physicians in the Middle Ages approached such conditions and attempted to provide relief to their patients.
The intricate details in this drawing offer us a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate both the advancements and limitations of medical science during that time period. The artist has skillfully captured not only the procedure itself but also elements of everyday life in medieval society.
As we reflect on this historical image, it serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of understanding and treating various ailments. It also prompts us to ponder on how future generations will view our current medical practices with curiosity and perhaps even disbelief.
