One of the most intriguing of the plague doctor images weve found is a painted coat of arms belonging to Theodore Zwinger III (16581724), a Swiss doctor and descendant of Theodore Zwinger I (15331588), the Swiss doctor and humanist whose Theatrum Humanae Vitae is considered, the historian Helmut Zedelmaier writes, perhaps the most comprehensive collection of knowledge to be compiled by a single individual in the early modern period. The painting depicts a plague doctor on one side of a blazon and a man in a ruff on the other perhaps representing both the medical and the scholarly traditions of the Zwinger clan? Some sort of duality is being represented, at any rate and the extraordinarily avian plague doctor (even his eyes look birdlike!) lends something mysterious to the picture. » JOIN OUR COMMUNITY FOR MORE HISTORY KNOWLEDGE!
