EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, dated circa 1860, captures a pivotal moment in the history of science and medicine as French neurologist and physiologist Guillaume Duchenne de Boulogne (1806-1875) demonstrates the power of electricity over human facial expressions. Known for his groundbreaking research on electromyography and the study of the nervous system, Duchenne is seen here applying electrical current to various muscles of a subject's face, revealing the underlying mechanisms behind the visible expressions. The image showcases the doctor's intense focus and dedication to his work, as he meticulously records the results of his experiments. The subject's facial expressions, contorted by the electrical current, serve as a testament to the scientific discovery unfolding before their eyes. The image also highlights the innovative use of technology in the pursuit of knowledge, with the bulky electrical apparatus and complex wiring that would have been a common sight in Duchenne's laboratory during this period. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the intersection of science, medicine, and technology during the 19th century. It is a reminder of the curiosity and determination of scientists like Duchenne, who pushed the boundaries of human understanding and left an indelible mark on the history of science.
