The physician as a man, Hendrick Goltzius (workshop or), 1587 Canvas Print

In a house, a man sits by the fireplace next to his bed, relatives caring around him. A doctor sits next to him talking. In the room to the right of it you can see what has happened to the man since his fall (see the first two prints of the series): his head wound has been taken care of and he has walked on crutches. In the foreground once again the doctor, standing amidst books and medical instruments. Latin and Greek texts engraved under the performance and (outside the plate edge but on the same sheet) a printed Dutch text, in which it is explained that the doctor is treated like an ordinary person when the sick person is almost healed. This print is part of a series of four prints depicting how the doctor is considered and valued during his visit to a sick person: upon entering as a god, after the first aid as an angel, in healing as a human being and when to pay like a devil.
