Yes thank you...Good to learn..But my painting looks old..Not recently done..Maybe an old copy I suppose..??

 

I agree. It looked very Dutch to me (sorry kyra), the way the scene is positioned, and especially the woman's hat, and I remembered seeing it before.
This one could be 19th century, those Dutch paintings were copied a lot at the time.

There were professional surgeons in the Low Countries in those days, but the patient had to be pretty desparate to go to one.
A Low Countries surgeon, 'chirurgijn', had less medical training than a doctor. A doctor worked with herbal and other remedies, a chirurgijn set bones and did any cutting and stitching that was deemed necessary.
One of my Frisian ancestors was a chirurgijn.

 

Thanks to get some more facts news..jb
