Twee aanblikken van een schedel met gevolgen van syfilis op het schedeldak before 1894

"Twee aanblikken van een schedel met gevolgen van syfilis op het schedeldak" is a medical photograph by Albert Ludwig Sigesmund Neisser, a German physician who is credited with discovering the bacteria responsible for syphilis. The artwork, taken sometime before 1894, presents two views of a skull showing the effects of syphilis on the cranium. The photograph, captured in black and white, is a stark reminder of the devastating impact of the disease and serves as a valuable resource for medical history and the study of syphilis. Neisser's work significantly advanced the understanding of syphilis and its treatment, and this photograph offers a glimpse into his meticulous documentation of the disease.
