EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of physiognomical studies, as depicted in Guillaume-Benjamin-Armand Duchenne de Boulogne's groundbreaking work "Mecanisme de la Physionomie humaine ou analyse electrophysiologique des passions". Published in 1876, this image showcases the meticulous experimentation conducted by the French neurologist to unravel the intricate mechanism behind human facial expressions. Intriguingly sorrowful, this portrait delves into the realm of experimental psychology, revealing a face masked with suffering. Through electrical stimulation and careful observation, Duchenne sought to decode the physiological basis of emotions. His pioneering research laid the foundation for plastic surgery and our understanding of muscle action. The plate featured here is a testament to his relentless pursuit of knowledge. It portrays pain etched on a male subject's countenance, highlighting both physical and emotional distress. The grimacing visage serves as a window into our complex inner world, shedding light on how passion manifests itself through our features. As we gaze upon this photograph captured by mzphoto from eArchives Charmet, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary moment in scientific history. This image not only celebrates Duchenne's remarkable contributions but also reminds us of photography's power to immortalize significant milestones.
