Franciszek Skaryna is one of the most studied and, at the same time, one of the most mysterious figures in Belarusian history. A giant of the European Renaissance, doctor of medicine, book publisher, translator, original thinker and artist... We know a lot about Skaryna, but there are still many gaps and unsolved mysteries in his biography.
Professor Mikalai Soroka, a well-known Belarusian doctor, one of the leading scientists in the field of clinical medicine, expresses a hypothesis about Skarina's state of health. The characteristic signs of the "disease of geniuses and aristocrats" were not hidden from the professional view of a rheumatologist. The author offers the interested reader to take a closer look at the famous engraving - the portrait of Franziska Skaryna.
