For all those who took part in the #DisabilityGallery challenge last year, here's the result.
#Disability history made it into @Europeanaeu's awesome #GalleryOfTheWeek!
Yippee!
Well done everyone!
This #GalleryOfTheWeek, curated with #DisabilityHistory twitter community, features depictions of disabilities in artworks across centuries, reflecting the diverse lives, experiences and treatment of people with disabilities

Today is #nationalmuseumday. Are you visiting a space? Also, read our article about the Museum of disAbility History. https://t.co/BkpfycK8Z5 @Musedisability #InclusionMatters #DisabilityGallery
This from last week, a load of super cool people sharing their #dishist picture resources!
WE WERE THERE THE WHOLE TIME!
Look at the #DisabilityGallery for more
OK #DisHist chums!
Can any of you out there help the lovely folks @Europeanaeu create an online #DisabilityGallery of pre-C20 images for their brill #GalleryOfTheWeek series?
I've already offered my ten cents worth. Who's next?

As it's #EuropeDay, why not explore the continent's rich cultural heritage & help @Europeanaeu complete the #DisabilityGallery challenge?
The MISSION:
Look for #disability-related items from BEFORE the 1900s in their online collection & LET THEM KNOW!
There's lots to discover!
@daniel_blackie Challenge accepted! A great idea and we'd love some help, so if you see relevant images on https://t.co/KUfdwVyFG1 - let us know π€
Seems folks are really getting into this!
See what they're discovering @Europeanaeu by heading over to #DisabilityGallery.
Better still, why not contribute some suggestions of your own!

@ReimaVlimki @Europeanaeu No ,we're looking for any pre-C20 items in Europeana's collections that shed light on the still largely hidden history of #disability. So keep on digging, Reima. With your expertise, I know you can help us uncover lots of fab stuff like this for earlier periods!#DisabilityGallery
@daniel_blackie @Europeanaeu @Europeana Quickly turned out that a fast search wasn't going to be an option - I was turning up more & more interesting material, not necessarily for the #DisabilityGallery, but across all areas of research - spoilt for choice, a nice problem to have! ππ Will return to this...
@daniel_blackie @Europeanaeu This is a particularly interesting example of an artificial cheek, eye and palate, shown in a copy of the BMJ from 1889. The gentleman shown had to have a myeloid sarcoma removed from his face, leaving behind "a large chasm" #DisabilityGallery

@daniel_blackie @Europeanaeu How about this 1 for the #DisabilityGallery - from the UK, 1866?
Had to get a railway image in ... even if not of a worker (tho' note staff are blamed for 'carelessness' - a common trope of the time!).

@daniel_blackie @Europeanaeu Dated from the nineteenth century, this image shows a man wearing artificial legs. #DisabilityGallery

@daniel_blackie @Europeanaeu There are also some images of a Mr. C- C- wearing, and using, prostheses, after losing both his arms (1891) #DisabilityGallery

@daniel_blackie @Europeanaeu I'm having a great time looking for prostheses on the site! So, i'll tweet some highlights to this! #DisabilityGallery
Here's a gorgeous illustration of an artificial hand, by Pare:

@EvanPSullivan @daniel_blackie Wow, great to see some of you on it and so much great content found for the #DisabilityGallery π
And because it's so beautiful, spontaneous and useful - let's keep it up π
β‘οΈ Anyone up for writing a short guest post for our blog to raise the visibility of #disthist?
@daniel_blackie @Europeanaeu Oooh there are a few I've found that I like! There's this etching from 1795; "Doctor Bossy" (fabulous name) trying to sell medicines to the disabled and sick, and a 13thC illustrated letter V from a manuscript from Basel featuring a disabled figure. Both from @wellcomeimages

Born in Germany, he spent his later career in Britain and Ireland.
@daniel_blackie @DisabilityHistr @DisHistFi @DbeforeDhi @DisHistBlog @JenniKuu @DrDavidMT @nicolebelolan @DisabilityStor1 @jaivirdi @coreen_anne @sarahbelle721 @EvanPSullivan @NinonDubourg @NorseLass @mm_wilkerson @JenniJuuliaWaHe @DrBCCurtis @nkogan @K_KM_K @finnishngallery @Europeanaeu And the same goes for other impediments of speech: they've been made visible in multiple ways (much earlier in China than in Europe, as I'm to my shame only now finding out) https://t.co/Oqx6UHmuCI #DisabilityGallery
