• DESCRIPTION: This engraving by Jean Daulle, after a painting by David Teniers the Younger, depicts a rustic Flemish interior where a surgeon examines and treats an elderly man’s foot. The patient sits with one leg propped as the surgeon works, while an assistant at a nearby table grinds ingredients in a mortar. Shelves lined with bottles, surgical tools, and household items frame the scene, and a small group of onlookers, including a woman and child, watch with a mixture of curiosity and concern. Rich in domestic detail and gentle humor, the composition captures Teniers’s skill in blending everyday realism with lively narrative, here preserved through Daulle’s fine, precise linework.
