EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Alexandre Emile Jean Yersin, a renowned Swiss-French physician and bacteriologist, captured by the talented artist Pierre Petit in 1893. Yersin's significant contribution to medical science cannot be overstated as he was the discoverer of the bacillus responsible for one of history's deadliest diseases - the bubonic plague or pest. In recognition of his groundbreaking discovery, this devastating pathogen was named after him: Yersinia pestis. The portrait exudes an air of intelligence and authority as Yersin gazes directly at the viewer with a direct gaze that demands attention. Dressed in traditional Victorian attire, complete with a distinguished beard and jacket, he personifies professionalism and expertise. This image not only captures an influential figure but also represents an era when scientific advancements were rapidly transforming our understanding of medicine. It serves as a reminder of how individuals like Yersin dedicated their lives to unraveling mysteries that plagued humanity. Preserved through time on this monochrome print, it offers us a glimpse into the past - an era where pioneers like Yersin paved the way for modern medicine. As we admire this photograph today, let us acknowledge his invaluable contributions to society while appreciating the artistry behind Pierre Petit's skillful portrayal.
