What you’re looking at

This appears to be a Judge magazine illustration (copyright 1920) depicting a doctor's office scene. A figure on the right holds what looks like a book or document, standing near a desk with papers. A fireplace glows warmly in the background, suggesting a comfortable professional setting. The caption "A Fitting Testimonial to Doctor" suggests this satirizes the practice of doctors receiving testimonials or endorsements from grateful patients. The exact identity of the doctor being referenced is unclear from the visible text, but the illustration appears to be commenting ironically on medical credibility or the value of patient testimonials as proof of a doctor's competence—a practice Judge's satirical tradition would likely mock. The specific historical medical or social context remains unclear without additional information.
