Duchenne, a neurologist at a hospital for the poor in Paris, turned to photography to record the grammar of human expression.
Description
This photograph is part of the first systematic exploration of the physiology of human facial expression. In order to demonstrate how each individual muscle contributed to creating an expression, Duchenne stimulated one or more muscles on one side of the face and left the other at rest.
