The image shows a plague doctor costume, including a wide-brimmed hat and a bird-like mask with long beak, displayed on a surface with printed text in Portuguese. The text describes the bubonic plague, mentioning the use of masks filled with herbs by doctors to ward off contagion. Additional text details historical hygiene practices, including the use of paper for hygiene in China and bathing practices in ancient Rome. A section mentions the construction of aqueducts in Rome, specifically the Aqua Appia. A winged scepter lies on the table behind the mask. The lighting is dramatic, casting deep shadows that obscure some details. The location appears to be the Museu Egípcio e Rosacruz in Curitiba, Brazil, based on the context of the exhibit on historical practices.
