SMALLPOX VACCINATION, 1883 - A Glimpse into the Medical Practices of Late Victorian England
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This wood engraving from 1883 captures a significant moment in medical history - infants being vaccinated against smallpox using glycerinated calf lymph. In this poignant scene, a doctor and nurse are seen administering the life-saving vaccine to young children. The image portrays an era when smallpox was still a dreaded disease that claimed countless lives. The mother's anxious expression reflects both her concern for her child's well-being and hope for their protection against this deadly illness. Meanwhile, the infant cries out in discomfort as the vaccination is administered. The use of glycerinated calf lymph as a vaccine was groundbreaking at the time. This technique involved extracting fluid from calves infected with cowpox virus, which provided immunity against smallpox when injected into humans. It marked a significant advancement in inoculation methods during that period. This wood engraving not only showcases the medical practices of late Victorian England but also highlights the dedication and bravery of healthcare professionals who tirelessly worked to combat infectious diseases. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of medical advancements and underscores the importance of vaccinations in safeguarding public health. As part of The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, this print offers us an intriguing glimpse into our past while honoring those who fought tirelessly to protect future generations from devastating diseases like smallpox.
