| Caption | Six scenes narrating the fuss caused by a man's progression from minor cold to supposed major illness and then sudden recovery. Etching by J Lisle after himself. The man's initial plea for nursing with his cold leads onto the summoning of a doctor and procurement of an abundance of potions. The terminal illness which seems to develop throws the houshold into grief-stricken turmoil and the doctors into confusion. The patients miraculous recovery naturally surprises everyone. Above the scenes is a skeleton emerging from a doctors' hat holding a cane and medicine bottle. Created between 1800 and 1899?. Sick – Psychology. Cold (Disease). Physician and patient. Nurses. Convalescence. Medicine – Formulae, receipts, prescriptions. Hypochondria. Contributors: Joe. Lisle; J Blewitt (1782–1853). Work ID: ny7e72nk. |
