1154156 An Address of Thanks from the Faculty to the Right Honble Influenzy for his Kind Visit to the Country, 1803 (hand-coloured etching) by West, James (fl.1803); 24x33.8 cm; Philadelphia Museum of Art, Pennsylvania, PA, USA; (add.info.: Doctors\' fees have long been a frequent theme in medical satire, for no one wants to pay for illness and thus any expense can be deemed to be excessive. West\'s caricature shows a group of physicians who have been more than pleased to have benefited from an epidemic of influenza, and have thus come to pay homage to the disease for increasing their incomes. Some of the medicines they have used, including a barrel of Peruvian bark (quinine) and a bottle of gargle, lie under and on the table. ); 穢 Philadelphia Museum of Art ; The William H.
