Physician Curing Fantasy

A satirical illustration entitled 'The Physician Curing Fantasy' depicts the artist's feelings about the medical treatments of the day, late 1590s or early 1600s. At left, a doctor pours liquid through a funnel into a patient's mouth, while in the foreground, another patient is pushed into a covered dome (rather like an oven) as a variety of images (a man with two dogs, a woman with a monkey, a horse, musical instruments, jesters, insects, birds, and a building) emerge from it.
