COMMITMENT TO LIFE 1500 Numbered & Signed Print Size: 20" x 24" Release Date: September 1984 Release Price: $50.00

COMMITMENT TO LIFE clearly illustrates a very important part of life
itself - that of medical care. The central focus is the patient, represented by the
medical chart. Various instruments used by the physician in carrying out his commitment to life and good medical care. Throughout the physicians lifetime,
the use of many resources such as the PDR, New England Journal of Medicine,
Journal of the American Medical Association, Conn's Current Therapy and the Textbook of Surgery all show the tremendous amount of study required in the physician's professional life. Many other support instruments are illustrated: the ever present x-ray, pharmaceutical vials, stethoscope, otoscope and of course,
the "black bag". The microscope certainly depicts the education and
research that has gone into the commitment to life by many individuals.
The print is surrounded by the whiteness of the lab coat depicting the sterile nature of medical care in its present state. Of course, the painting
would not be complete without the Hippocratic oath, which all
physicians subscribe to throughout their lifetimes.

Commitment to life is what most physicians recognize when they go into
the field of medicine, whether it be in the actual healing arts, research,
education or totally diagnostic. Commitment to life means the physician's commitment to a lifetime of study and selflessness within his or her lifestyle.
It also means that life is made better by this tremendous commitment
on the part of these unselfish individuals.
