About
UC San Francisco is pleased to present this digital experience for viewing a collection of New Deal-era murals by the Polish-born artist Bernard Zakheim. The collection features a 10-panel mural titled the "History of Medicine," which was carefully removed from a seismically outdated building and placed in safe, climate-controlled storage. These murals will be publicly displayed again when a new location for their exhibition has been determined. Before Toland Hall, Zakheim painted Cole Hall murals contrasting ancient and modern medicine, these are currently located in the Health Science West building on UCSF Parnassus campus.
