Comments in the BM Journal
The Three Graces,” painted by Rubens ... clearly depicts scoliosis, a positive Trendelenberg sign, hyperextension of the metacarpal joints, hyperlordosis, and flat feet. The sitters for the painting were presumed to be Rubens's second wife and her sisters, supporting the view that hypermobility is a familial condition (Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases 2001;60:8945). Close observers of nature thus recorded the condition well before doctors recognised it.
