"The Radcliffe Infirmary: An Emblematical Representation With Dr John Radcliffe Conducted From The Temple Of Aesculapius By The Genius Of Physic With Inscription 'wale' And With Inscription 'guy's Hospital' Pen And Grey Ink And Grey Wash" is a historic artwork by Samuel Wale, an English artist and illustrator who was active in the 18th century. This piece is notable for its representation of Dr. John Radcliffe, a prominent English physician and benefactor, being led from the Temple of Aesculapius, the Greek god of medicine and healing, by the personification of medical science or the Genius of Physic. The artwork is executed in pen and grey ink with grey wash, a technique that gives it a soft and monochromatic appearance, emphasizing its allegorical and emblematic qualities.

The inscription 'Wale' indicates the artist's signature, while the mention of 'Guy's Hospital' suggests a connection or dedication to one of London's most famous historical hospitals, founded by Thomas Guy in 1721. Samuel Wale was known for his contributions to book illustrations and was a founding member of the Royal Academy in 1768. His work often included historical and allegorical subjects, and this particular piece serves as a testament to the intersection of art, medicine, and philanthropy in the 18th century.

The Radcliffe Infirmary, named after Dr. Radcliffe, was Oxford's first hospital, established in 1770, and it played a significant role in the development of clinical medicine in the United Kingdom. The artwork by Samuel Wale not only captures a moment in the history of British medicine but also serves as a visual homage to the legacy of Dr. Radcliffe and his contributions to medical practice and education.

As an emblematical representation, the artwork is rich in symbolism and reflects the Enlightenment era's values of knowledge, progress, and the betterment of society through science and medicine. It is a piece that would be of interest to historians of medicine, art enthusiasts, and those intrigued by the cultural heritage of the United Kingdom.
