In the dimly lit Chapel of The Savior, a haunting scene unfolds. The Savior himself stands before his followers, revealing his sores to them in all their grotesque glory. This Gothic depiction, captured in c. 1400 oil on panel artwork titled "Lazarus and the Rich Man, " serves as a powerful reminder of human suffering. Leg ulcers or sores take center stage in an engraving that portrays the agony endured by those afflicted with this ailment. The image is part of a collection called "The Parables of Christ: The Rich Man and Lazarus, " rendered beautifully through chromolithography. Dante's epic journey through hell, depicted in "The Divine Comedy, " includes a chilling encounter with plague-stricken souls. Virgil guides Dante through this macabre landscape where sufferers bear visible sores as symbols of their torment. Amidst these dark depictions, glimpses of hope emerge. Engravings showcasing appliances for the sick-room highlight humanity's efforts to alleviate pain and provide comfort during times of illness. Saint Roch emerges as a beacon amidst despair; he is portrayed around 1490/1500 by Israhel van Meckenem. Known for his miraculous healing powers against plagues and epidemics, Saint Roch displays his own wounds while offering solace to those plagued by disease. Albrecht Durer's striking piece from 1496 explores venereal disease, shedding light on another form of affliction that leaves painful marks both physically and emotionally. Stained glass windows tell stories too; one such window depicts the parable of Lazarus and Dives - capturing the stark contrast between opulence and destitution while reminding us that earthly wealth cannot save us from our mortal wounds. Oil paintings further bring this biblical tale to life - rich colors depicting Lazarus begging at the banquet table or languishing outside its doors evoke empathy for those burdened with physical ailments while surrounded by abundance.
