From: Spectacular rediscovery of the original prints of radiographs Roentgen sent to Lorentz in 1896
The most impressive radiographic image is the one taken on December 22nd, 1895 of Bertha’s hand as it is the only image which shows the importance of X-rays for medicine as it is the first anatomical radiograph. It is therefore seen as the beginning of radiography. For Time Magazine, it was the reason to nominate it as one of the 100 most influential photographs ever. The other eight radiographs are of a technical nature. Manually written legend: ‘Hand mit Ringen’ (Hand with rings). Paragraph referral: § 2 and § 14
