Digital Exhibit: The Mural - "The History of Medicine in Louisiana"

In the 1940s, Franklin Boggs was commissioned by the Aloe Company, a medical supply company in New Orleans, LA, to capture the evolution of the state's medical history. The 112-foot by 57-inch mural located in the Reference & Research Services area depicts memorable events in Louisiana’s medical history.

A digital exhibit was created to show the history of the mural and its journey from the Aloe Company to Tulane University and now Dupré Library. The exhibit can be viewed under Digital Exhibits.
