"Apotekeren" 1778 - 1780

"Apotekeren" (The Apothecary) is a satirical print by Danish artist Georg Christian Schule, created between 1778 and 1780. The print depicts an apothecary, kneeling and blowing into a long, cylindrical tube. The image is a caricature, highlighting the absurdity of the profession. This print, now part of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst collection, reflects the social commentary and humor prevalent in Danish art of the late 18th century.
