Description

Watercolour drawing of the fingernails of a woman who had onychia mycosis. From a woman, aged 24, who had tinea circinata of the scalp for four years. Her nails had been affected during the whole time, but not continuously. The parasitic growth is seen spreading beneath the nails and leading to their destruction. From an Out-Patient.
