$MASKS

Plague doctors wore distinctive clothing, which included a long, dark cloak, a wide-brimmed hat, and a mask with a beak-like structure filled with aromatic substances. Despite their iconic appearance, plague doctors faced considerable danger, as they were frequently exposed to infected individuals.

The beak-like mask was filled with aromatic substances, such as lavender and camphor, which were believed to ward off the plague, while the cloak and hat were designed to cover the skin and hair to prevent infection.
