Description
French doctor. Satirical artwork titled: 'A French Physician with his Retinue going to Visit His Patients'. The doctor is being transported in a carriage at centre, while an assistant (at right) is carrying an enema syringe (clyster). At left is an apothecary (pharmacist) with a dog. This work was originally by the Swiss artist Michel-Vincent (Charles) Brandoin (1733-1807). Shown here is an engraving, by Caldwell, which was printed in London in 1771. This copy was reproduced in 'Die Karikatur und Satire in der Medizin' (Caricature and Satire in Medicine, 1921) by the German art historian and physician Eugen Hollander (1867-1932).
