A village doctress distilling eyewater Wellcome L0040282.jpg
The watercolour shows a rural medical practitioner, a woman, not young, using her own urine to create a medicine which she offers for sale for rubbing on the eyes to dispel bad humours of the eye. She urinates in the right foreground into a funnel over a chemical vessel; another, younger woman urinates in the left background into a funnel placed in a barrel, and a cat urinates in the left foreground on to the ground. She and the younger woman urine is coming out in a rather large stream. Iconographic Collections Keywords: Medicine; Thomas Rowlandson; Urine
