Twee portretten van een patiënt met een carcinoom door huidlupus before 1894

This is a medical illustration of a patient suffering from the disease, Lupus. The work was created by Albert Neisser, a German physician and bacteriologist, who discovered the causative agent of gonorrhea in 1879. The two photographic portraits of the patient's face depict the effects of the disease, which, as the title suggests, is characterized by a carcinoma on the nose. The image was created before 1894 and was likely intended as a teaching tool for medical students and professionals. It is a stark reminder of the devastating impact of this disease and its potential for disfigurement.
