EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a series of physiognomical studies from the groundbreaking work "Mecanisme de la Physionomie humaine ou analyse electrophysiologique des passions" by Duchenne de Boulogne, published in 1876. The photograph, taken by Guillaume-Benjamin-Armand Duchenne de Boulogne himself, captures the essence of human facial expression through electrical stimulation. Displayed in this image are various subjects ranging from ages 22 to 28, each wearing a mask that reveals only their eyes and mouth. This experimental psychology study delves into the intricate connection between emotions and muscle action on our faces. It explores how electrical stimulation can elicit different expressions such as sorrow, pain, suffering, and grimacing. Duchenne's pioneering research not only contributed to the field of neurology but also had implications for plastic surgery and understanding human emotions. His meticulous observations shed light on the physiological aspects of emotion and provided valuable insights into our complex nature. The portrait evokes a sense of curiosity as we witness these individuals' emotional states frozen in time. Through this photograph, we glimpse into the world of French neurologist Duchenne de Boulogne's revolutionary experiments that forever changed our understanding of physiognomy and its relation to human experience.
