Friedrich Wilhelm Ernst Albrecht von Graefe was a German ophthalmologist, royal Prussian secret medical councilor and full professor of the reformed ophthalmology at the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Berlin. In Germany he founded the field of ophthalmology or ophthalmology, which until then had belonged to surgery. In his raised right hand he is holding the ophthalmoscope developed by Hermann (von) Helmholtz. The design of the sculpture is extremely realistic. The majolica reliefs show the sick who are still to be healed and their companions on the right, those who have already been healed are shown on the left. Illustration from 19th century.
