title: [Portraits of physicians: the past found].
abstract: Until the 16th Century, physicians had always been portrayed, on paintings, frescoes and statues, as anonymous practitioners. Since that time, a vast amount of portraits has come down to us. In the Library of the Academy of Medicine alone, are registered more than 7000 documents (portraits, photographs, heliographies and caricatures).
