EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph, created by Leopold Massard after the manuscript 5070 in the Bibliotheque Nationale, depicts Jean Jacques, a doctor and later chancellor of the esteemed Faculty of Medicine at Montpellier in the 14th century. The image captures the intellectual and professional stature of Jean Jacques, as he is shown donning the traditional attire of a scholarly figure from the medieval period. With a serious expression and a fur-lined robe adorned with intricate patterns, Jean Jacques embodies the wisdom and knowledge that comes with his dual roles as a respected physician and academic leader. The Faculty of Medicine at Montpellier, founded in 1220, was one of the oldest and most prestigious institutions for medical education in Europe during the Middle Ages. Jean Jacques' appointment as chancellor speaks to his significant contributions to the field of medicine and his dedication to the advancement of knowledge during this time. This print, taken from Paul Lacroix's "Historical Costumes of France," provides a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and traditions of medicine during the 14th century. The intricate details of Jean Jacques' attire, as well as the meticulous handcolouring, bring the image to life and transport us back in time. This valuable historical record is a testament to the enduring importance of medicine and education throughout the centuries.
