Description
English: Beautiful panorama of the traditional medical profession. Notice the doctor in the foreground contemplating his patient, intrigued, trying to scrutinize the pathophysiology to achieve an effective therapy. We also see the sick girl, possibly victim of some of the terrible incurable infectious febrile diseases in the preantibiotic era, pale, weak, asleep. Deep down we see the dismayed mother, worried, hoping for the best. Also notable is the expression of the father, who cannot contain his concern about his daughter's illness, but who has to remain calm to give comfort to the grieving mother.
Español: Hermosa panorama de la profesión médica tradicional. Nótese al Médico en primer plano contemplando a su paciente, intrigado, tratando de escudriñar la fisiopatología para lograr emprender una terapéutica efectiva. Vemos también a la niña enferma, posiblemente victima de alguna de las terribles enfermedades febriles infecciosas incurables en la era preantibiótica, pálida, débil,dormida. En el fondo vemos a la consternada madre, preocupada, esperando lo mejor. Es también notable la expresión del padre, quién no puede contener su preocupación ante la enfermedad de su hija, pero que tiene que mantener la calma para dar consuelo a la afligida madre.

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1927, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 95 years or fewer.

You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that Mexico has a term of 100 years and does not implement the rule of the shorter term, so this image may not be in the public domain in Mexico.
This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
