This painting is called "Homeopathy looks at the horrors of allopathy." It was painted by Russian artist Alexander Beideman in 1857.

In the 19th century, the painting was also known as the "Triumph of Homeopathy".

In the far right of the painting, we can see Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy - German physician born in 1755 (dark blue cloak). Together with the god of medicine Aesculapius in a red cloak and the goddess Athena (protector of science) they look with disapproval at the horrors of allopathy (modern medicine) and in those times often brutal and inhuman practices and mistreatment of patients.
