MEDICINE AND PHARMACOLOGY
One of the biggest collections of images of the art of medicine, from prehistory to the present day: rupestrian and Renaissance paintings, miniatures from old codes, the rarest and most famous incunabola. The doctor in engravings and caricatures.
Medical and surgical engraving in the 17th and 18th centuries. The earliest images of photography in the service of medicine. From the shaman to the clinician: the evolution of a profession told in images: altars and Greek vessels, mosaics, coloured glass ampules from the Middle Ages, Renaissance paintings and manuscripts, Japanese wood carvings, Chinese silk prints, pre-Columbus American earthenware. |
