Jug, Spain, 1601-1700
Title
Jug, Spain, 1601-1700
Description

This jug shows the administration of an enema – a once very common method of introducing liquids such as medications or purgatives into the body via the rectum.

The inscription on the side of the jug translates from Spanish as “I am Don Jaoquín Hernandez’s jar. Through my intense devotion to my constitution I find myself on this occasion shamefully syringed at the hands of a serf.” In this context “serf” would have meant his servant.

maker: Unknown maker

Place made: Spain
