Une Leçon clinique à la Salpêtrière[1] (A Clinical Lesson at the Salpêtrière, 1887) is a painting by André Brouillet.
Professor Charcot was well-known for showing, during his lessons at the Salpêtrière hospital, "hysterical" woman patients – here, his favorite patient, "Blanche" (Marie) Wittman, supported by Joseph Babinski.
