Pharmacy, painting, Hospices de Beaune, Beaune, Burgundy, France
Painting of the apothecary Claude Morelos at work in the pharmacy of the Hospices de Beaune, by Michel Charles Coquelet Souville, 1751, at Les Hospices de Beaune, or Hotel-Dieu de Beaune, a charitable almshouse and hospital for the poor, built 1443-57 by Flemish architect Jacques Wiscrer, and founded by Nicolas Rolin, chancellor of Burgundy, and his wife Guigone de Salins, in Beaune, Cote d'Or, Burgundy, France. The painting shows the pounding of single drugs using a pestle and mortar, making medicine by heating mixtures, and distillation using stills heated on fires. The hospital was run by the nuns of the order of Les Soeurs Hospitalieres de Beaune, and remained a hospital until the 1970s. The building now houses the Musee de l'Histoire de la Medecine, or Museum of the History of Medicine, and is listed as a historic monument. Picture by Manuel Cohen
