EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of 19th-century medical practices. Created by Thomas Rowlandson and featured in William Combe's book "Doctor Syntaxs Three Tours: In Search of the Picturesque Consolation and a Wife" this artwork takes us back to a time when doctors were revered as saviors, despite their often questionable methods. In this scene, we see Doctor Syntax attentively listening to his patient's ailments while surrounded by an array of medical instruments. The room exudes an air of both curiosity and trepidation as the patient anxiously awaits the doctor's diagnosis. Rowlandson's skillful use of caricature adds a touch of humor to the otherwise serious subject matter. The print not only provides insight into historical medical practices but also serves as social commentary on society's reliance on doctors for both physical and emotional well-being. It reminds us that seeking professional advice has always been an essential part of human existence, regardless of time or place. Leonard de Selva expertly captures the essence of this iconic artwork through his photography skills, allowing viewers to appreciate its intricate details even from afar. This print is not just a visual treat; it also serves as a reminder that art can transcend time and continue to captivate audiences centuries later.
