This print is a group portrait of the medical faculty of the University of New York, the institution later known as New York University, together with the men credited as founders of its medical department. The medical school grew out of the university's charter as the University of the City of New York, and it opened its doors in the early 1840s, when New York was becoming a major center of American medical education. A print dated February 12, 1846, shows the faculty only a few years into that venture, when the school was still establishing its reputation. The record's details are unverified, so the exact sitters and the print's maker are best confirmed against the catalog entry.
