| Summary: | The aim of this study is to demonstrate that iconographic material constitutes a source for nursing history. For that purpose, a descriptive, retrospective, comparative, ethnographic historical study was carried out. Iconographic materials come from all human ages and have been classified in categories such as: painting, sculpture, philately and photography. In order to potentiate the hermeneutic process from nursing perspective, categories from Virginia Henderson’s needs system have been used. The main conclusion of this study consists in demonstrating pertinence of iconography materials in order to develop historical knowledge of Nursing. |
