plague doctor costume

The plague doctor's costume was the clothing worn by a plague doctor to protect him from airborne diseases. The costume, originating in the 17th century, consisted of an ankle length overcoat and a bird-like beak mask often filled with sweet or strong smelling substances (commonly lavender), along with gloves, boots, a brim hat, and an outer over-clothing garment.〔

==Description==
The mask had glass openings for the eyes and a curved beak shaped like that of a bird. Straps held the beak in front of the doctor's nose.〔 The mask had two small nose holes and was a type of respirator which contained aromatic items.

The beak doctor costume worn by plague doctors had a wide-brimmed leather hat to indicate their profession.〔〔Center for Advanced Study in Theatre Arts, p. 83〕 They used wooden canes to point out areas needing attention and to examine patients without touching them.〔(Doktor Schnabel von Rom, engraving by Paul Fürst (after J Columbina), Rome 1656. )〕 The canes were also used to keep people away,〔(American Medical Association - ''JAMA.: The Journal of the American Medical Association,'' Volume 34, p. 639 )〕 to remove clothing from plague victims without having to touch them, and to take a patient's pulse.〔〔Pommerville, p. 9〕
