EDITORS COMMENTS
Figure 60: Fright, 1854-56, printed 1862 captures the essence of fear and alarm in a mesmerizing black and white albumen print. Created by Duchenne de Boulogne and Adrien Alban Tournachon in the mid-19th century, this photograph showcases their groundbreaking experiment on facial expressions using electricity. In this image, a subject's face is illuminated with an eerie glow as electrical currents are applied to induce fright. The faradic current used for stimulation creates a haunting expression of terror on the individual's forehead and features. It is through this experimental process that Duchenne de Boulogne aimed to understand the connection between emotions and physical responses. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition, emphasizing the intensity of fear experienced by the subject. The meticulous attention to detail in capturing every nuance of their expression highlights both artists' dedication to scientific accuracy. This photograph not only serves as a testament to Duchenne de Boulogne's pioneering work in electrophysiology but also stands as a remarkable example of early photography techniques. Its historical significance lies in its contribution towards understanding human emotion while showcasing advancements made during this period. As we gaze upon Figure 60: Fright, we are transported back in time, witnessing an extraordinary moment frozen forever within this monochromatic masterpiece.
