EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures a scene from the 12th century, depicting a man in agony as he succumbs to the fatal bite of a rabid dog. The detailed English manuscript illustration showcases the devastating effects of rabies, also known as hydrophobia, on its victim.
The man is depicted lying on the ground, clutching his chest in pain with a walking stick by his side. His face contorted in anguish, it is clear that he is experiencing excruciating suffering from the rabid dog's venomous bite. The artist has masterfully captured the desperation and helplessness of this tragic moment.
In medieval times, rabies was a feared and deadly disease with no known cure. The sight of a person dying from this horrific illness would have struck fear into the hearts of those who witnessed it. This image serves as a stark reminder of the harsh realities faced by people living in that era.
As we look upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the importance of modern medicine and advancements in healthcare that have helped to eradicate diseases like rabies. It serves as a poignant reminder of how far we have come in our understanding and treatment of such illnesses.
