Auscultation,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating monochrome masterpiece created by the renowned Belgian artist Félicien Rops in 1893, is a striking visual representation of the medical practice of the time. Part of the series "Les Sonnets du Docteur," this heliogravure print showcases the intimate moment between a doctor and his patient, as he listens intently to her chest with a stethoscope. The doctor, dressed in formal attire, stands with a serious expression, while the woman, semi-dressed and bare-chested, gazes off into the distance with a pensive look. The contrast between their clothing and the exposed body of the woman highlights the vulnerability and trust required during such an examination. The black and white composition adds to the historical and nostalgic feel of the image, transporting us back to the late 19th century. This evocative piece, now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a testament to the rich artistic and medical heritage of Flanders, Belgium, and Europe as a whole. The interplay of literature and art in Rops' work adds an additional layer of depth and complexity, making "Auscultation" a must-see for anyone with an interest in history, art, or medicine.
