This stunning stipple engraving from the 19th century depicts the Greek god of healing, Asklepios. Standing tall and proud, this ancient deity is portrayed in his traditional toga attire, exuding a sense of wisdom and power. The intricate details of this print showcase the craftsmanship of English engravers during that era. Asklepios holds a staff, symbolizing his role as a healer and medicine man. With his majestic beard and mustache framing his face, he emanates an aura of authority and knowledge. A serpent coils around the staff, representing rebirth and rejuvenation - attributes closely associated with healing. The presence of a young boy by Asklepios' side suggests that he was not only revered by men but also held special significance for children seeking healing or protection.

This artwork transports us back to ancient times when people sought solace in deities like Asklepios for their ailments.
