Photograph of Clinique La Prairie, Clarens (c. 1958)
photograph · 1958
SUMMARY
Period photograph of the original Niehans clinic at Clarens. The image is referenced in clinic histories and biographical accounts of Niehans; specific provenance details would require consultation of the Clinique La Prairie archive. The clinic remains at the same location today; photographs from the late 1950s document the physical site at the height of Niehans's international profile.
NOTES
The photograph documents the clinic site at Clarens during the period of Niehans’s greatest international visibility, following the 1954 Vatican treatment and 1955 Pontifical Academy appointment. The building remains in operation as Clinique La Prairie today, though the clinical menu has shifted away from the original fetal-cell protocol. Specific photographer, rights, and exact date should be confirmed against the clinic archive before public republication.
