EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a moment of historical significance, showcasing the renowned King Henri IV (1553-1610) curing sufferers of scrofula. The engraving, created by Pierre Firens in the 17th century, depicts this miraculous event that took place during Henri IV's reign. In the image, we see the king surrounded by soldiers who are afflicted with scrofula, a disease characterized by swollen lymph nodes in the neck. With an air of divine power and compassion, Henri IV reaches out to touch one soldier's neck while others eagerly await their turn. The scene is filled with hope and anticipation as these suffering individuals seek relief from their illness. Henri IV was known for his healing abilities and was believed to possess the "king's evil" a term used to describe his supposed power to cure scrofula through touch alone. This engraving serves as a testament to his reputation as a miracle worker and healer. Preserved in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this artwork not only showcases historical events but also highlights themes of faith, suffering, and divine intervention. It reminds us of the enduring belief in miracles throughout history and offers insight into how people sought solace from illness during ancient times. This powerful image invites viewers to reflect on both past beliefs surrounding healing powers and our own understanding of medicine today.
