The Sick Rose: Disease and the Art of Medical Illustration
The old lithographs that fill page after page of Barnett's THE SICK ROSE are of people and the diseases they suffer-from commonplace ailments like eczema to gout to cancer. And the pictures are...horible. And beautiful. And horrible. They are skillfully and carefully-almost lovingly-done by anonymous artists. (Lucas PetersonFlaunt2014-03-01)
