490 1  A guide to imagery 
500    Originally published in Italian as La Medicina in the 
       series I dizionari dell'arte. 
504    Includes bibliographical references and index. 
505 0  Introduction -- The invalid -- Disease -- Mental illness -
       - Care -- Places of care -- Medicine -- Physician -- 
       Suffering -- Healing -- The human dimension of illness. 
520    This abundantly illustrated volume offers an exploration 
       of the depictions of illness and healing in Western 
       artworks that range from Egyptian wall carvings to 
       medieval manuscripts, and from paintings and sculpture by 
       the great masters of the Renaissance such as Michelangelo 
       and Leonardo da Vinci to twentieth-century artists such as
       Matisse and Magritte. Thematic chapters cover the 
       examination of patients and their various maladies 
       including disabilities and mental illnesses; healing and 
       medical treatments; and the sufferings of patients and 
       their hopes for cures and recovery. Psychological anguish-
       -as represented in The Expulsion of Adam and Eve by 
       Masaccio and Munch's The Scream--is treated along with the
       physical manifestations of pain. This volume, the 
       seventeenth in the popular Guide to Imagery series, offers
       analyses by both an art historian and a practicing 
       physician who comment, respectively, on the cultural 
       context in which specific artworks were created and the 
       level of technical knowledge available at that time, an 
       approach that makes for a fascinating look at a topic that
       has figured frequently in the Western artistic tradition.
