"Venetian Doctor during the Time of the Plague" is an 18th-century watercolor painting by the Dutch artist Jan van Grevenbroeck (1731–1807), who is known for his detailed depictions of Venetian costumes and figures. The painting portrays a physician dressed in the traditional attire worn by doctors during the time of the plague in Venice. This costume typically included a long overcoat, gloves, a mask with a beak-like shape designed to hold aromatic substances believed to protect the wearer from miasma or "bad air," and a wide-brimmed hat, which indicated the profession of the wearer.

Van Grevenbroeck's work is significant as it provides a visual documentation of the clothing and social history of Venice in the 18th century, particularly focusing on the city's response to the plague. The plague doctor's outfit has since become an iconic symbol of the city's history with the disease. The painting is a valuable resource for historians and art enthusiasts alike, offering insights into the medical practices and societal conditions of the time.

Jan van Grevenbroeck's meticulous attention to detail and his commitment to capturing the essence of Venetian life make "Venetian Doctor during the Time of the Plague" a notable example of historical genre painting. While the painting itself is not as widely recognized as some other works from the same era, it remains an important piece within the oeuvre of van Grevenbroeck and is of particular interest to those studying the history of medicine, costume design, and the impact of the plague on European society.
