✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Gericault's 1822 historical depiction of this madwoman with gambling mania was one of ten paintings commissioned by the Salpetriere to show psychiatric disease in facial appearance (physiognomies). The author speculates on a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, a disorder only recently described by James Parkinson (1817), but probably already known to French Neurology. © 2007 Movement Disorder Society
