1 Self-portraits by an artist following damage to his right posterior parietal cortex. Each portrait was drawn at a different time after the stroke: at 2 months (upper left), at 3.5 months (upper right), at 6 months (lower left), and at 9 months (lower right), by which time the artist had largely recovered. The early portraits show severe neglect of the left side of face, the side opposite the lesion. (Reproduced, with permission, from Jung 1974.)
