The caption reads: "Injecting blood taken from a malaria patient (left, background) into the arm of a psychiatric patient (center). Julius Wagner-Jauregg (in black tie) is facing the camera. He looks on, standing behind the psychiatric patient. (Photograph from 1934, Institut für Gescjocjte der Medizin, Vienna, Austria.)"
