EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Apothecary tile, adorned with the coat of arms and motto of the Worshipful Society of Apothecaries of London. Crafted from ceramic, this artifact is a testament to the rich history and significance of this esteemed Livery Company in the City of London. The tile features a beautifully designed heraldic escutcheon, embellished with intricate scrolls and a majestic golden unicorn. Symbolizing medicine and science, these elements pay homage to the vital role played by apothecaries throughout history. The motto "Opiferque per orbem dicor" meaning "I am called upon throughout the world as healer" further emphasizes their dedication to healing and well-being. Intriguingly shaped like a heart, this blue and white masterpiece exudes elegance while representing health and medical care. The inclusion of animals such as rhinoceros adds depth to its artistic composition. Photographer Derek Bayes has expertly captured every detail, allowing viewers to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind this ceramic treasure and its historical significance. This image serves as a reminder that behind every pharmacy or pharmacist lies centuries-old traditions rooted in providing essential healthcare services.
