EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the late 19th century, where we find ourselves inside the tuberculosis ward of the Hasköy Hospital for Women in Constantinople, Turkey. The image was skillfully captured by Abdullah frères, renowned photographers of that era. The scene depicts a solemn and somber atmosphere as we observe rows of beds occupied by veiled patients battling this infectious disease. A Turkish nurse can be seen tending to one of the patients with great care and compassion. The room is filled with an air of hope mixed with despair, as medicine and treatment were still limited during this period. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the struggles faced by women afflicted with tuberculosis at that time. It offers us a glimpse into their lives within this clinic, highlighting both their vulnerability and resilience. As we delve into history through this powerful image, it becomes evident how far medical advancements have come since then. Today, tuberculosis is better understood and more effectively treated thanks to scientific progress. Let us appreciate not only the artistry behind capturing such moments but also recognize the significance of documenting historical healthcare practices like those depicted here in order to learn from our past experiences and continue improving healthcare for all.
