Known for his significant contributions to the fields of obstetrics and gynaecology in Paris during the late 19th century, Segond was also an expert on knee injuries and famously described the eponymous "Segond fracture".

In this portrait, we see a man with a direct gaze that exudes confidence and intelligence. His well-groomed moustache adds to his dignified presence.
