EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "An Entertainment at Kings College Hospital" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into a unique moment of joy within the walls of this renowned medical institution. The image showcases an elaborate scene filled with performing arts, opera, and an atmosphere brimming with excitement. Intriguingly, we see a motherly sister attending to a refractory patient while surrounded by faculty members and toys. The focal point is undoubtedly the royal box where distinguished guests are seated, witnessing this extraordinary spectacle. A grand staircase serves as the backdrop, adding elegance to the setting. The artist masterfully captures both the lively energy of the entertainment and the solemnity associated with hospitals. It's fascinating how such contrasting elements seamlessly blend together in this artwork. The inscription "pestleentia deorumest donum" meaning "the healing art is divine gift" reminds us of Sir Joseph Lister's groundbreaking contributions to medicine during that era. This print was originally featured in The Graphic on May 23rd, 1885. Through this historical engraving preserved in private collection archives, we are transported back in time to witness not only medical advancements but also moments of respite for patients amidst their treatments. It serves as a testament to human resilience and creativity even within challenging circumstances like those found within Kings College Hospital in London.
