2 works

This is a photograph of a closed album cover with French text. The album cover is made of a textured material with a dark green hue. It features embossed text in gold, stating "Dr Duche(enne de Boulogne)" and "MÉCANISME DE LA PHYSIONOMIE ALBUM" across the front. The text is centered, with varying sizes and styles to distinguish between titles and subtitles. Decorative horizontal lines are present above and below some of the text. The album is tied on the side with beige or light brown fabric ties. The overall appearance is formal.

Mécanisme de la Physionomie (The Mechanism of Human Facial Expression)

Duchenne (de Boulogne), Guillaume-Benjamin-Amant

The image shows a man seated facing the camera. An apparatus holds his mouth open. His facial features include a pronounced brow, deep lines across his forehead, and a visible frown emphasized by the device. His hair is thinning and combed back, revealing more of his scalp. He wears a loosely fitted shirt with an open collar. Two other individuals are partially visible, wearing suits suggestive of a formal setting. One on either side of the man holds the device in place. The background is plain and slightly blurred with no noticeable details or objects.
