Summary[edit]
DescriptionPhineas Gage Daguerreotype WilgusPhoto2008-12-19 CroppedHeadOnly Unretouched BW ToneCorrected.jpg |
English: Photograph of cased-daguerreotype studio portrait of brain-injury survivor Phineas P. Gage (1823–1860) shown holding the tamping iron which injured him. Includes view of original embossed brass mat. Color, unretouched. From the collection of Jack and Beverly Wilgus. Because a daguerreotype is almost always laterally (left-right) reversed, a second, compensating reversal has been applied to produce this image, so as to show Gage as he appeared in life; that this shows Gage correctly is confirmed by contemporaneous medical reports describing his injuries, as well as from the injuries visible in Gage's skull, still preserved. |
