Description
1902 1ed Art and Medicine FAMOUS Paintings Durer Holbein Rembrandt Illustrated
Paul Richer was a 19th-century French physician who published one of the best books on art and medicine. LArt et la Medicine is unique in that it collected important and famous pieces of artwork depicting medical treatments, diseases, and symptoms from history. This book contains an interesting section on mental illness noting silly behavior, buffoonery, and idiots which includes the likes of physical deformities and oddities.
While all of the artwork is impressive in itself, some of the included artists make this work highly desirable. Note the inclusion of the art of Albrecht Durer, Hans Holbein, Rembrandt, and Peter Paul Rubens.
According to Heirs of Hippocrates,
“This impressive work is an historical survey of medicine as portrayed in art and includes over 300 reproductions of paintings and woodcuts.”
