Petrus Gonsalvus : ウィキペディア英語版 | Petrus Gonsalvus
Petrus Gonsalvus (Pedro Gonzalez), referred to by Ulisse Aldrovandi as "the man of the woods,"〔Armand Marie Leroi, ''Mutants: on genetic variety and the human body'' (Penguin Books, Jan 25, 2005), (273 ).〕 was born in 1537 in Tenerife. His life has been well chronicled as he became famous during his lifetime because of his condition (hypertrichosis). He first came to the court of Henry II, King of France in 1547, and was sent from there to the court of Margaret of Parma, regent of the Netherlands. He married while there. Later he was moved into the court of Alexander Farnese, Duke of Parma. Four of his seven children were also afflicted with hypertrichosis universalis and painted.〔Chris Laoutaris, ''Shakespearean maternities: crises on conception in early modern England'' (Edinburgh University Press, 2008), (123 ).〕 His family became an object of medical inquiry by Ulisse Aldrovandi among others. Despite living and acting as a nobleman, Gonsalvus and his hairy children were not considered fully human in the eyes of their contemporaries. All of his children who were similarly afflicted as their father were taken from their parents and gifted to various influential people as novelty pets. Gonsalvus eventually settled in Italy with his wife. The last known record of him is from 1617, when he was listed among those who had attended his grandson's christening. ==Chamber of Art and Curiosities, Ambras Castle== The Chamber of Art and Curiosities, Ambras Castle collection has a painting of Pedro Gonzalez (Petrus Gonsalvus) as well as other people who display an extreme form of hirsutism, also called Ambras syndrome in 1933 in reference to its depiction at this collection.
