A daguerrotype of Phineas Gage, circa 1850. We learned about him in psych the other day. 
The quality of the photograph is rather impressive considering its age. The amount of detail in particular is striking, apparent in the wrinkles of his jacket and the scars on his face.
I am really pleased with myself because I know how to spell daguerrotype.
