EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the renowned English surgeon, Joseph Lister, on his ward round at Glasgow Royal Infirmary in 1867. Lister, a pioneer of antiseptic surgery, stands tall and confident as he examines his patients with utmost care and precision. On the left side of the image, an assistant dutifully holds Listers steam spray device which emits a mist of carbolic acid-laden steam. This innovative tool played a crucial role in preventing infections during surgeries and contributed to Lister's remarkable achievement: announcing that his wards had been free from sepsis for an impressive nine months. In this particular moment frozen in time, we witness a heartwarming interaction between Lister and one of his young patients. The girl hands him her broken doll with trustful eyes as he delicately sews its leg back on. This simple act showcases not only Lister's surgical skills but also his compassion towards those under his care. Lister's contributions to medicine revolutionized surgical practices and saved countless lives. His dedication to advancing science and improving patient outcomes solidified him as one of the greatest innovators in medical history. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the impact individuals like Joseph Lister can have on society through their relentless pursuit of knowledge, innovation, and compassionate patient care.
