The front of the tile depicts a druggist measuring ingredients for a preparation. The following description is glued to the back of the tile on a piece of paper. "The Seventeenth Century saw pharmacy's use of medicinal plants evolve from herbalism to botany. In the Middle Ages, information and illustration had been based on previous description, rather than on direct observation. Mythology and magic often crept in, exemplified by simplified motifs or fanciful designs. By the mid 1600's, however, a group of druggists in Nuremburg, Germany, formed an association with physicians to study the plant kingdom. It became their custom to make botanical excursions called "herbations" in fall and spring, and they classified and described any plants they found to have medicinal properties in the Annals of the College of Physicians. These early attempts at the scientific method spread rapidly throughout Europe. "Herballs" were even carried to America by colonists who relied on them to cure their health problems. These early herbals recognized many qualities about plants which are still appreciated today. For example, Culpeper's herbal prescribed the juice of willow leaves for fevers. The chemical in this potion has acquired respectability as salicylic acid, a base for drugs now used for the same purpose. When cinchona first arrived in Europe in the 1630's, Thomas Sydenham viewed the quinine derived from it as the ultimate vindication of herbalism, for it was the first efficient drug to cure a specific disorder (malaria). Many similar observations and experiments of the Herbalists were to contribute a respectable share of the scientific foundation of the coming Renaissance in chemistry, botany, and pharmacy. Pill tiles were used to prepare medications in apothecary shops. They were awarded to pharmacists upon completion of their formal training and in recognition of their service to the community. In keeping with this fine tradition, Burroughs Wellcome has commissioned craftsmen in Delft, Holland, to create a series of handmade porcelain pill tiles.

The front of the tile depicts the laboratory of the apothecary where large-scale drug production took place. The top of the tile has two unicorns depicted flanking a small coat of arms. The following description is glued to the back of the tile on a piece of paper. "This scene depicts part of the laboratory of a Dutch pharmacist in the Seventeenth Century, before the large-scale industrialization of pharmaceuticals. The pharmacist's laboratory was usually located in the back of the shop, with the family's living quarters upstairs. The pharmacist was especially proud of the large "beehive" brick oven and of the distillation apparatus for compounding batches of medicaments. Important laboratory equipment included alembic heads of all sizes, ladles and spatulas, barrels and casks, weighing devices, and mortars and pestles. Various "simples," or nncompounded items including mineral elements, roots, leaves, bark, and resin, were stored nearby in chests of drawers awaiting use. The final products were transferred to attractive delft and majolica jars, glass bottles or tightly-sealed metal boxes and put on display for sale in the apothecary shop in front of the laboratory. A typical European pharmaceutical training program in the Seventh Century included six to eight years as an apprentice and two years as a clerk, followed by comprehensive oral, written, and practical exams. As the science of pharmacy grew, an accomplished apothecary's price list might have included as many as 2400 different preparations, including almost 400 chemical compounds. Some of the recipes grew increasingly complex even by today's standards. One notable example was the famous Theriac, which contained more than 52 ingredients at the peak of its popularity. Porcelain pill tiles were used to prepare medications in early apothecary shops. They were awarded to pharmacists upon completion of their formal training and in recognition of their service to the community. In keeping with this fine tradition, Burroughs Wellcome has commissioned craftsmen in Delft, Holland, to create a series of handmade tiles.
