You are Fine! - A Glimpse into the World of the Poor Man's Doctor
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to 19th-century France, where poverty and illness were rampant. Depicted in vivid detail is a scene that reflects both the hardships and humor of seeking medical care when resources were scarce. Engraved by Langlume in 1825, this artwork titled "You are Fine!" showcases the work of Edme Jean Pigal as he masterfully captures a moment between a doctor and his patient. The poor man's doctor, known for his dedication to serving those with limited means, is portrayed here with great empathy. The color litho technique employed by Pigal adds depth and vibrancy to every element within the composition. We see an examination taking place; the doctor attentively examines his patient while palpating their pulse. Despite their dire circumstances, there is a sense of hope emanating from both figures. This piece belongs to Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France – a treasure trove of historical artifacts. It offers us insight into an era when healthcare was far from accessible for all members of society. Through this image's clever use of caricature and satire, it sheds light on not only the challenges faced by impoverished individuals but also on the resilience they displayed in times of adversity. "You are Fine!" serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst hardship, compassion can be found within humanity's most trying moments.
