Journal Article
De Leidse chirurgijns en hun kamer boven de waag
1980
Overview
From 1669 onwards the Leiden surgeons held their meetings in the town's weigh-house (figs. 1–3). The Collegium Chirurgicum, presided over by a professor of medicine at the university, instructed and examined the surgeons' pupils in the midst of a collection of objects that served partly for teaching and partly for decorating the guild room (figs. 4–9). On the basis of the earliest inventory, of 1714, an attempt is made here to give an idea of the significance of the collection and the status of the guild. The instruments in the surgeons' cupboard (fig. 12; in 1714 there were around 50 of them, 22 of which could be identified) are discussed in the appendix. They were mainly used as teaching aids, but in 1714 some of them were already out-of-date and inadequate for carrying out surgical operations.
