Abstract:
Postcard featuring a black and white photograph of an operation. Two men near the head of the operating table are working on the patient, who is mostly covered with a white cloth. There are four nurses, dressed all in white, in various parts of the room. One is pouring something from a large dark bottle into a smaller bottle, one is holding a dark bottle downward near the patient's head, one is standing near a side table and holding an instrument, and one who is standing a little farther back near a sink is also holding an instrument.
