    Author: Fabre AJ.
    Journal: Hist Sci Med; 2009; 43(4):429-38. PubMed ID: 20503646.
    Abstract:
    Until the 16th Century, physicians had always been portrayed, on paintings, frescoes and statues, as anonymous practitioners. Since that time, a vast amount of portraits has come down to us. In the Library of the Academy of Medicine alone, are registered more than 7000 documents (portraits, photographs, heliographies and caricatures).
