EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the inauguration of the amphitheatre of the royal school of surgery by King Louis XVI. Painted by Gabriel de Saint Aubin, a renowned artist of the 18th century, this gouache painting showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The scene is set in Paris, where on September 14th, 1774, King Louis XVI himself graced this auspicious occasion with his presence. The amphitheatre comes alive with students and surgeons eagerly awaiting the start of their education journey. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and excitement as they gather to witness this grand event. The image portrays not only the historical significance but also highlights the importance placed on medical education during that time. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of advancements in surgical techniques and healthcare practices. Gabriel de Saint Aubin's masterful brushstrokes bring every element to life - from the intricate architectural details to each individual's expression brimming with enthusiasm for learning. This artwork now resides at Musee Carnavalet in Paris, serving as a testament to both artistic brilliance and an important milestone in medical education. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to that momentous day when knowledge was celebrated and shared within these hallowed walls. It stands as a tribute not only to King Louis XVI but also to all those who dedicated themselves to advancing surgical science for generations to come.
