EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The ear, deafness" takes us back to the 19th century when medical knowledge was rapidly advancing. The engraving, created by an English School artist, is a fascinating illustration featured in The Family Doctor and Peoples Medical Adviser on December 11th, 1886. In this historical image from a private collection, we witness a scene that reflects both the importance of family and the significance of medicine in society. A concerned family gathers around as a doctor attentively examines the ear of a patient suffering from deafness. With his watch in hand and catheter at the ready, he conducts a listening test to diagnose the ailment accurately. The composition exudes an air of anticipation as everyone's eyes are fixed on this pivotal moment. It serves as a reminder that health concerns have always been prevalent throughout history and highlights how families relied on doctors for guidance during times of uncertainty. "The ear, deafness" is not just an artistic masterpiece but also offers valuable insights into popular medical practices of its time. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate how far we have come in understanding hearing impairments while acknowledging our gratitude towards those who dedicated their lives to improving healthcare for all.
