Father Damien, 1888;
The photo is from the Hawai'i State Archives in Honolulu, Hawai'i. It was taken in 1888, the year before Father Damien's death, by an unidentified visiting journalist to the Moloka'i colony. The photo, along with various others, were used by the artist Marisol Escobar who sculpted the Father Damien Statue that now stands at the Hawai'i State Capitol and the United States Capitol. This particular likeness was preferred for the sculpture because of the details in scarring on the face, the strongest indicator of leprosy.
