Six scenes narrating the fuss caused by a man's progression from minor cold to supposed major illness and then sudden recovery. Etching by J. Lisle after himself. Wellcome Collection. Public Domain Mark. Source: Wellcome Collection.
The man's initial plea for nursing with his cold leads onto the summoning of a doctor and procurement of an abundance of potions. The terminal illness which seems to develop throws the houshold into grief-stricken turmoil and the doctors into confusion. The patients miraculous recovery naturally surprises everyone. Above the scenes is a skeleton emerging from a doctors' hat holding a cane and medicine bottle
