It is inscribed with 'passive' on the reverse side of the frame. It is one of two portraits of a young mother from a series of four published as engravings by Dr. Connolly 'On the Physiognomy of Insanity', in 'Medical Times and Gazette', June 1858. The catalogue states that 'Dr Connolly believed these to be the first attempts of Dr Diamond to delineate by photography, the progressive changes in mental disease'.
