EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1930s, showcases a significant moment in medical history. The image captures a doctor conducting a patella reflex test on a young girl during a children's medical examination held by the London County Council Schools. The purpose of this test was to detect any indications of nervous disease in the rising generation. The scene unfolds within an intimate indoor setting, where the doctor is seated comfortably on a chair while carefully examining the child's knee. Both individuals are engrossed in their roles; the doctor, with his expertise and dedication to healthcare, and the young girl, perhaps feeling both curious and apprehensive about her check-up. Surrounded by furniture that exudes an air of simplicity and functionality, this print provides us with insight into early 20th-century medical practices. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of advancements in medicine and technology. Captured through panoramic photography using letterbox format, this monochrome portrait reflects not only Sir John Alexander Hammerton's skillful documentation but also his commitment to publishing informative literature such as "Our Wonderful World". Through images like these, Hammerton aimed to educate readers about various professions and concepts related to science and health. As we observe this poignant moment frozen in time, it reminds us of the importance placed on safeguarding public health even decades ago. This print stands as a testament to our continuous efforts towards better understanding human physiology for generations past and present alike.
