The portrait of the London and Horncastle Physician Edward Harrison, painted and displayed in 1823, was editorially criticized by one of the medical journals of the time. After Harrison died the portrait remained in the family estate until 1938, after which it was presented to the National Gallery of Ireland. The image of Dr Harrison had never been displayed in any of his medical writings, nor in any other medical historical works, until 2008. This paper provides some history of the criticism of the portrait, similar to the historical vignette of the portraiture of William Harvey and outlines the detective work to track down the location of the portrait.
这幅绘制于1823年并展出的伦敦和霍恩卡索医生爱德华·哈里森的肖像画，受到了当时一份医学期刊的编辑批评。哈里森去世后，这幅肖像一直保存在家族庄园，直到1938年，之后它被捐赠给了爱尔兰国家美术馆。直到2008年，哈里森医生的形象从未在他的任何医学著作或任何其他医学历史著作中出现过。本文介绍了对这幅肖像画批评的一些历史，类似于威廉·哈维肖像画的历史轶事，并概述了追踪这幅肖像画下落的调查工作。
