    Early 20th Century Medical Pioneer Portrait (1910-1915)

    $19.95

    This photograph features Dr. Urrutia, a prominent figure in early 20th-century medicine and public health. Taken between 1910 and 1915, the image captures a moment in time when medical advancements were rapidly transforming healthcare practices. During this period, the medical community was becoming increasingly aware of the importance of public health, sanitation, and preventive medicine, which were pivotal in addressing widespread diseases and improving life expectancy.

    The photograph was produced by the Bain News Service, known for documenting significant individuals and events through photography. Glass negatives, like the one used for this image, were a common medium for capturing detailed images before the advent of modern film. Each negative was painstakingly created, allowing for high-quality reproductions and preserving important historical figures like Dr. Urrutia for posterity. His contributions to the field reflect a broader movement of innovation and reform occurring in medicine at the time, underscoring the evolving role of physicians in society.

    As a historical artifact, this photograph not only documents Dr. Urrutia himself but also offers insight into the eras medical practices and societal attitudes toward health. It stands as a testament to the progress made during the early 1900s and the ongoing evolution of healthcare that continues today. Through images like this, we can connect with the past and understand how far we’ve come in our pursuit of better health and well-being.
