About the Item
Caregiver of the Sick: Compassion in Action, Plate 60
*
This striking lithograph features a caregiver of the sick, clad in solemn black robes adorned with vivid red crosses on the sleeves, symbolizing his dedication to healing and spiritual comfort. Holding a book—perhaps a prayer book or medical guide—the figure embodies compassion and service, a beacon of hope for those in need. His contemplative posture reflects the gravity and dignity of his role.
Historical Context:
Such caregivers were often part of religious orders devoted to tending the ill, including the Camillians, founded by St. Camillus de Lellis in the late 16th century. Their mission extended beyond physical healing to offering solace to the soul, bridging faith and medicine during tumultuous times.
Provenance:
This artwork is a part of the *Album ou Collection Complète, et Historique des Costumes de la Cour de Rome,* crafted by G. Perugini and published in Paris by A. Lemaître. Plate 60 captures the selfless spirit of those who served humanity with faith and resilience, often risking their own lives during outbreaks and crises.
